How long does DMV keep records on vehicles and vessels?
The department began microfilming all vehicle and vessel documents in 1992. This increased accessibility of these records. There are some records dating back to 1976 that may be accessed. Records with no activity, such as tickets, renewals, transfers, etc., are usually purged from the database after 4 years.
