I have a Maryland license and got a speeding ticket in Pennsylvania. Will points be added to my MD license? How will this affect my insurance?

Maryland and Pennsylvania are both part of a Drivers License Compact that allows both states to exchange information regarding traffic convictions back to the home state of the licensed motorist. Due to this, the MD Motor Vehicle Administration (MVA) will be notified of your speeding ticket in PA.

According to Maryland traffic statutes points are not ordinarily assigned to out-of-state traffic violation convictions, unless it was a serious offense. Not having points assessed to your MD license is helpful but because the offense will likely show up on your MD motor vehicle record you insurance rates could be affected.
