Question about traffic ticket
 

I am a California resident and got a ticket in Nevada. Does that go on my California driver's license?

no, it goes on your nevada one

Does masturbating in public even affect your driver's license?

:winkwink:

Definite maybe (but I think they do)

Every state dmv used to be separate, now, who knows. I think it does not give you points, they just want the money.

Not even close to being accurate. :2 cents:

Actually, think it is. The other states just want your money and 20 years ago that for sure is how it worked.

I would not get points on my license if I just paid a speeding ticket out of state. I'm fairly certain that is the norm and as always... there may be 1 state that has their heads up their ass.

But I did say *used* to be... and please tell me one state that passed points for speeding to another state... either today, or 20 years ago.

Doesn't matter much..... Oddly enough this was my first speeding ticket under 100 mph.

Many years ago (about 15) I got a speeding ticket in California, but was living in Oregon and it never showed up on my driving record or had an affect on insurance costs.

That isn't to say your's won't, just telling you my experience.

Without any dmv lawyers here please pay the ticket, post back in 69 days if you got any points.

Here is likely your answer for CA speeding ticket in NV:

"For example, let's say you got an out-of-state speeding ticket while driving in Nevada, but you hold a California driver's license. The California DMV will check the NDR first, when you are attempting to renew your license. If the NDR shows that you haven't paid off your Nevada speeding ticket, then the DMV will likely make sure you resolve this issue first before they'll grant your renewal."

Blown away though how anal states are becoming now. I guess just paying 1 state is now not enough... the other state wants a stake as well as the Insurance companies.

Looks like TX and NY are pretty bad. NJ gives 2 points when they do that check... nazis!

Plenty of warning signs there

Never just pay a traffic ticket in any state. There are many law firms that specialize in only fighting traffic tickets of all kinds and red light camera tickets. Their fees are usually modest, maybe like $79 or $99 and they can often get the tickets dropped completely or reduced to a lesser offense using a variety of tactics or legal maneuvers. You won't have to show up in court unless it's a DUI or reckless driving offense. They just deal with it and send you a letter a few months later in the mail informing you of the outcome. NEVER just pay a ticket because it came in the mail. Even if you ultimately pay court costs, the amount you save on a lesser charge as opposed to the original charge and avoiding the cost of points on your license and insurance increasing will be well worth it.

Richard any chance you got this ticket on the Hwy 95 (I think) .... that runs between Reno and Vegas, at the speed trap of a ghost town just south of Death Valley? Can you guess where I almost got mine? :winkwink:

What Jim Gunn said :thumbsup

I in fact subscribe to Prepaid Legal in the USA. Remember those guys. Well moving violations in the States is the only thing I use them for. :2 cents: No additional costs, and they will handle the defense.
