How long does a DUI and/or Habitual Traffic Offender for revoked license stay on your driving history in the state of Florida?

The state of Florida mentions specifically that a DUI in Florida stays on your permanent record and on your driving history for 75 years. Though they do not state as directly how long a habitual offender or a license revocation for this offense would remain on your FL driving record we believe it to be 10 years.

The Florida Statutes authorizes the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (HSMV) to establish and maintain the management of driving records. The HSMV notes that convictions reflecting point assessments remain on a customer’s complete driver history record for a period of 10 years from the date of conviction. However, serious convictions (DUI, DUI/Manslaughter, Vehicular Homicide, etc.) will remain on the record for 75 years.

You can contact the FL HSMV to make certain that the offenses you mentioned remain on a Florida driving record for this length of time since Florida Statutes are ever changing and being amended.
