Check your driving record online

The Massachusetts Registry of Motor Vehicles introduced a system today where residents can go online and view their driving record. To view your driving record, go to the registry's website here.

Registry officials said that they dealt with over 57,000 requests for records last year, and this system will decrease the burden on the RMV, while making is quicker easier for drivers to view their records.

Viewing the record costs users $6, which seems a bit ridiculous, but it is probably easier than the hassle of going into an RMV branch and waiting in line. Keep in mind, though, that your insurance agent can likely get you a copy of your driving record for free.
