How do I expunge a driving record in Maryland?
I’ve read that Maryland will expunge certain things on your driving record so that you can eventually lower your car insurance rates. However, I’m not sure what the process is. How can I expunge a Maryland driving record?

It’s great that you’re looking into cleaning up your driving record—it’s one of the easiest ways to lower your car insurance rates! Maryland doesn’t give drivers the option to remove points from their license, so expungement or waiting two years until the points fall off are the only ways to get rid of points on your license. That said, expunging a driving record in Maryland is automatic per new laws passed in 2017.
If you get a ticket, Maryland will automatically expunge it from your record if you’re eligible. To be eligible for expungement, here’s what you need:
- You have no criminal proceedings against you
- Your license hasn’t been revoked or suspended
- You’re not on probation
- No violations within the past three years
