The length of time a DUI stays on someone’s record can vary depending on the state and the circumstances of the offense. In most states, a DUI will stay on an individual’s driving record for 7-10 years. However, some states may keep it on record for longer or shorter periods of time. In some cases, the record may be expunged or sealed after a certain amount of time has passed. It is important to check with your state’s laws to determine how long a DUI will stay on your record. Additionally, the DUI offense may also stay on a criminal record indefinitely. In Massachusetts, you will need to file a petition to seal it off your records unless you are found Not Guilty in which case it will automatically be sealed. However, the event will always remain on your driving history with the Massachusetts RMV.
