Question 1

What is a Manitoba driver's abstract?

Accepted Answer

A Manitoba driver's abstract — also called a Motor Vehicle Record (MVR) — is the official driving history issued by Manitoba Public Insurance (MPI), which administers the province's motor vehicle registry. It includes your driver's licence class and status, traffic violations and convictions, demerit points, licence suspensions and reinstatements, and accident history. The record is delivered as an official PDF.
