Car Insurance Question  I just got a speeding ticket in Maine and my license is in Nevada. Will it show up on my record? If I want to get new car insurance do I have to tell them I got a ticket if it is not on my record?

The state of Maine where you received your speeding ticket and the state of Nevada, where you are licensed, both are members of the Drivers License Compact. Maine is thus required to report the ticket you received back to Nevada.

According to the Nevada Department of Motor Vehicles, any conviction of a traffic violation that occurs in another state is added to your NV driving record. Out of state citation convictions do not generate demerit points to be put on your Nevada license though.

Violations in Nevada can be seen by your insurance company for 3 years. Whether or not the out-of-state speeding ticket makes it onto your NV driving record right away, if you are asked about moving violations by an auto insurance company you will need to list this ticket.
