Best Answer

Both states are members of the Driver License Compact.

California reports traffic citations issued in California to people with Idaho licenses to the Idaho DMV.

Idaho reports traffic citations issued in Idaho to people with California licenses to the California DMV.

As a result, getting a ticket in another state can still affect your insurance rates and potentially your ability to retain your license in your home state. (You can potentially get your license revoked for a DUI/DWI violation in another state.)

Of course traffic laws are not quite the same in the two states so it's not total reciprocity; if it were, then a Californian could get a ticket in Idaho for doing something that is legal on Idaho roads but illegal in California. You can probably see why Idaho would not be interested in enforcing California laws in Idaho - even if they did have the authority to enforce California laws.

Note: Georgia, Wisconsin, Massachusetts, Michigan, and Tennessee are not members of the Driver License Compact. Nevada repealed the authorizing legislation (maybe what happens in Vegas sometimes DOES stay in Vegas...) but still usually reports violations to home states.
