Will a speeding ticket from another state affect your auto insurance?

Tickets in another State

All States as of 2005 are Required through Federal Regulation to comply with and make available to all other states reciprocal driver records. It Is not a matter of a ticket needing to be reported. If the infraction occurred then the information is available to all states. The reciprocal agreement extends to all states being able to request from any other state that a drivers License be suspended until such time as the requesting jurisdictions requirements have been satisfied.

My advice, if it ain't too high just pay it quickly so you don't wind up taking a trip and hiring an attorney trying to get our license reinstated.

Happy Motoring

of course it will, you got ticket . So you do the crime you do the time.

It depends on the laws of your home state and whether your state posts out of state tickets. While most do, there are a few exceptions. NY is one.

In general, it always pays to fight an out of state speeding ticket. Never assume that you can just pay the ticket, regardless of what the officer tells you. Check to be sure how it will be posted to your record in your home state and you may also want to check with your insurance agent. In many cases it is cheaper in the long run to hire an attorney to try and get it reduced.

I think this response is overly broad. I was pulled over by a Vermont state trooper who specifically told me the ticket wouldn't be reported to my home-state DMV. I think this question needs much more research.

The answer is: It depends on the state you got the ticket in .

Some states report tickets to each other's DMV or MVD license bureau and some don't. If your state gets info from one of the states that shares, you will most likely see it on your motor vehicle report. Unfortunately, so will your insurance agency next time they take a look at it.

You may want to call your motor vehicle department to ask about it.
