The date the DMV driving history is run cannot be more than 60 days prior to the date you turn in your application. Applications received without a current DMV printout will be considered incomplete and will not be considered further in the process. Insurance company printouts will not be accepted. Thirty-six months of driving history must be reflected on your DMV driving record. If your California driving history is less than 36 months, you must obtain DMV history from your previous state of residency.
Major violations are convictions which indicate a disregard for safety.
One or more convictions of driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs during the preceding thirty-six month period will be considered unsatisfactory. Two or more moving violations within the preceding thirty-six month period will be considered unsatisfactory. This excludes non-preventable accidents.
