Reader’s Question:

I live from another state but got a DUI in Toledo Ohio about four years ago. When will it go off my driving record? My insurance rate is too high till now.

The DUI in Ohio is listed at least 6 years on your driver’s record since it is noted by the OH Bureau of Motor Vehicles (BMV) that it is considered a first DUI violation if you are found driving with a prohibited alcohol concentration or drug of abuse with no prior OVIs within the last six years on the driving history. It is considered a second offense if you have at least 1 prior OMVI within the last six years on the driving record.

From the information from the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles (BMV) there is no information of the Ohio Revised Code (ORC) that states regarding infractions being removed of a driver record. But, an administrative decision is in effect that permits for Driver Abstracts to only reflect the last 3 years motorist record activity.

So it looks like that a DUI conviction will stay on any OH driving record that the BMV started for you indefinitely but you can verify with the BMV to find out for sure about your situation with you being an out of state resident.

Reader’s Question:

I live in Columbus OH and I am insured in the state of Ohio. I drove my friend’s car and wrecked it. My question is: does my insurance company pay for the damages or his insurance?

The Auto Insurance Buyer’s Guide on the Ohio Department of Insurance website states that, typically covered on an insurance policy is you, family members in your household (that you have listed on your insurance policy) and in general any licensed motorist that you allow to drive your vehicle unless your insurance policy rules out this provision.

Your friend will have to discuss the insurance coverage he has under his car insurance policy but normally it is the car owner’s insurance that would be primary and the motorist’s car insurance would be secondary, thus his car insurance would pay on the damages first. If his car insurance did not cover all of the damages then your auto insurance could be used for excess.
