What is the Colorado Driving Record Request form?

Form DR 2559, Permission to Release Driver Records to Self or Another Person, or referred to as the Colorado Driving Record Request form, is an official document in Colorado used to request the release of your driving record for personal use. This form was prepared by the Colorado Department of Revenue, Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV).

An individual or business entity may also request for your driving records provided that they meet the criteria to request the record. The criteria include the following:

  • A government agency
  • An agency charged with driver or motor vehicle safety or theft
  • A business that will use the information to verify the accuracy of information submitted by individuals for preventing fraud
  • Pursuing legal remedies against or recovering a debt or security interest
  • An insurer or insurance support agency in connection with claims, investigations, anti-fraud activities, rating or underwriting
  • Other terms pursuant to Colorado law, 24-72-204 (7) C.R.S.

If they meet the criteria, fill out Form DR2489, Driver Record Search Requestor Release, and submit it together with the Colorado Driving Record Request form.

The Colorado DMV keeps track of a driver’s activities and releases a driving record that covers the previous seven years. They also maintain driver histories that go back beyond seven years. These records are kept in compliance with State and Federal laws, such as the Fair Credit Reporting Act and the requirements of the Federal Trade Commission.

A Colorado driving record shows a person’s driving history. It includes the individual’s personal driving record information such as:

  • Driver’s full name
  • Driver’s current home address
  • Driver’s license number
  • Date of issue and expiry of the driver’s license
  • Driver’s license status
  • Any reported traffic violations, citations, and fines.
  • Any accidents, points, or both held against you.

The State of Colorado offers two types of motor vehicle records. These are:

  • Non-certified motor vehicle records

This type of motor vehicle record is commonly ordered for personal use. It can be easily ordered online.

  • Certified motor vehicle records

This type of motor vehicle record is verified by the Colorado DMV. These are the ones that will satisfy and fulfill legal and official purposes.
