Got an out of state speeding ticket yesterday...
Got a 15 over speeding ticket in Louisiana yesterday heading for the airport with the rental car. Since I live in Wisconsin what are my options besides paying the $203? Will the out of state ticket show up on my record? I've had only 2 previous tickets in my 30 years of driving and this is the first one from out of state. It was an empty stretch of highway in central Louisiana (Hwy 28 Near Leesville) and it went from 65 limit to 55 without any change in the road such as a town, intersection or anything. I honestly thought it was still a 65 zone. The young state trooper didn't offer to drop the speed over or anything. As soon as I handed him my Wisconsin license along with my military ID he stated "I will be issuing you a citation for speeding today". You think he was out to get me because I was from out of state or because I was driving a Mustang for my rental car? He knew I was on my way to the airport to turn in the rental. Has anyone else dealt with an out of state ticket before?

Yeah I hate situations like this, tickets. I dont know much about the regulations between states, but my brother who lives in Arizona told me that if he gets a ticket out of state it does not go on his record. Something about how it is a "non-tranistant" state. If this is the case. I may try and get residency in AZ hahaha. Tricky...

it will only show up as points if the states are reciprocal, which they probably aren't. NY/NJ are, but not with CT, which is strange.

You just pay the fine and vow to be a better citizen

yup, but your wallet will take a beating.... Connecticut sure isn't embarrassed about those hefty fines that's for sure.

What about those of us living in CT and getting a ticket in NY/NJ....do points transfer?

Why is it this info is always seems to be taboo....it seems like I always hear a different fact about whether the states talk to each other.

I wonder if Maryland has any agreements with neighboring states like VA.

As far as I know, the 3 states are not reciprocal. I would check though, things could have changed in the last 18 months.

here ya go, they now have an agreement between 45 states called the NRVC

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-Res...olator_Compact

basically states tell each other of MAJOR offenses like dui and suspensions, non-payment of fines etc, but they won't affect your home state license if you pay the fines.


best bet is to call your local DMV though.

How can you NOT have a blast on the Merrit? It's being on a rollercoaster, except you're in a more comfortable seat. :-D
