Is there somewhere you can look up details about your own past car accidents?
Find answers to your legal question.

I'm filling out a personal history form for something and I need to list motor vehicle accidents I've been in over the past five years. There were a couple but I don't remember exactly when they happened, one was over a year ago, the other was almost three years ago. Is there anywhere this information can be looked up?

Contact your state's Department of Transportation (DOT). They should have records of all of your reported accidents, including dates.

Editing to add: If you were in an accident and were not issued a citation, it will probably NOT be on your MVR.

Go to your local dmv and get your driving record.

It is called a DMV print out in most states. Any violations or citations on your record will be recorded. I believe it goes back 10 years.
If you cannot get, ask your insurance agent to help, they can obtain one for you

usually thru drivers licence search. contact your m.v dept and they will tell how to get transcript
