If you have points on you driver's license will they follow you if you move to another state?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

These days with computer links the odds are good that it will follow you. Although it does depend on the technology the city/state where you got the ticket and where you are going to have at their disposal. Most insurance companies will run a motor vehicle report either right when you are quoted or when the application is submitted.

Consequences for driving with an expired drivers license in New York?

Asked by Wiki User

In NSW Australia, you get charged with Speeding, Driving without a licence, and probably driving an unregistered car with no third party insurance. This is because if the driver is not licenced the third party insurance on the car is void. An expensive pastime to say the least.

Will a Delaware speeding ticket affect your pa drivers license?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Yes there is for two reasons. Both states are members of the Interstate Drivers License Compact and of the Interstate Nonresident Violator Compact. The Drivers License Compact consists of 45 states and the District of Columbia. States not included are Georgia, Massachusetts, Michigan, Tennessee and Wisconsin. The states in this compact exchange information on moving violations committed by nonresidents with the state where the driver resides, so that that information can be added to the record of the driver. Thus your out of state moving violation will appear on your driving record just as if it had occurred within your own state. In addition your state would probably add licensing and insurance points to your record. The Nonresident Violator Compact presently it consists of 44 states and the District of Columbia. States not included are Alaska, California, Michigan, Montana, Oregon and Wisconsin. This compact assures nonresident drivers accused of moving violations certain rights, such as freedom from being detained in the other state; however it also requires drivers to fulfill the terms of traffic citations received in member states or face the possibility of license suspension in their home state. If you fail to pay whatever fine is imposed in the other state, that state will notify your home state and your home state will revoke your license unless you take care of the out of state ticket properly. Note that the member states of one compact are not necessarily members of the other compact

How many points can you get on class a drivers license?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

For a CDL license it is not necessarily the points anymore. They have changed the law and now your CDL license will be suspended if you receive two serious CDL violations within a three year period. In addition, most companies will not hire you if you have one serious CDL violation or two other speeding ticket violations on your record. It is not the trucking company but their insurance carrier. If you have too many tickets, the insurance company will tell the trucking company that you cannot drive. A CDL driver needs to contest any traffic ticket. If you recevie one in your personal vehicle, it now counts the same as if you were in your truck.

Asked by StevenSteedfb5400

No. State DMV offices can access your driving history automatically from every state. Even if you don't mention you've had a license in NJ, it would still come up in NC's database. I speak from first-hand experience.

Can you obtain an restricted driver's license in the state of New Jersey if you have been suspended?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

You have to actually be a resident of any state you're getting a licence from, so, in order to be able to do this, you'd actually have to change your physical address. Even if you did this, it wouldn't do you any good if you intended to remain in the state of New Jersey - when your licence is suspended, your driving privileges in that state are suspended, as well, and you won't be permitted to drive in that state under any licence until you have your driving privileges reinstated, which can't be done until the end of your suspension period.

Is a canceled drivers license and a suspended license the same?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

No. A licence is canceled when, for example, somebody moves to another state and gets licenced in that state, then the state they were previously in cancels the licence they held previously. No driving privileges are lost. Suspension is a different matter, altogether.

How long does a DUI stay on kansas drivers license?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

That depends on the state and the insurance company. Some states allow up to 5 yrs of history while others only 3 years. Some companies go by the incident date and some by the conviction date or the date you get your driver's license back.

The insurance may be right, but they changed the law and no DUI in any state can be taken off your record. Even if it's your first and you take a diversion program, the DUI sticks on your record FOREVER....

What is the learners drivers license age in British Columbia?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

You have to be at least 16 to get a learner's licence. After at least 360 days, you can take a roadtest to get a novice licence. Two years after that, you can take another road test to get the full class 5 licence.

With a learner's licence, one person with a driver's licence, who is at least 25 years old, has to be in the vehicle with you when you drive. You can also only have one additional passenger.

With a novice licence, you can drive on your own, but can only have one passenger unless the passengers are members of your immediate family or if you have someone with a driver's licence, who is at least 25 years old with you.
