Hello, Nita! Purged as a legal term refers to clearing someone from guilt, charges, or accusations. This term is frequently used for driving records to suggest ways your driving records get purged from driving felonies or any other past records for that matter. This term usually applies for any sort of records, therefore, I think you meant purged license records to be more precise. This means nothing else than cleaning or clearing the records or history.
