The Driving Record and the Missouri Department of Revenue Driver License Bureau
The driving record is a separate document from the court file. It is kept by the Missouri Department of Revenue Driver License Bureau, which adds each conviction the court reports and handles suspensions; the court does not issue driving records.
Paying a ticket is a conviction, reported to the Missouri Department of Revenue Driver License Bureau like any other; contesting it means a plea of not guilty entered with the court by the date on the ticket.
A DWI is a criminal charge rather than a ticket, with its own license case before the Department of Revenue (see Parkville DUI).
