Most US states document on a motorist’s motor vehicle records (MVR) if an accident has occurred involving them, but typically they do not assign whose at fault. In Washington State, collisions involving non-commercial cars stay on a person’s driving record for five years from the date of the collision. Collisions involving commercial cars remain on the record for ten years.

The state of Washington document accidents on your driving record to show involvement, but the Washington Department of Licensing (DOL) does not determine fault for the collisions.
