Car Insurance Question  I have a GA drivers license and I received a speeding ticket in Virginia. I was driving at 78mph in a 65mph zone. I have paid the violation fee. How will it affect my record?

Georgia does not take part in the Drivers License Compact (DLC) that Virginia is a member of, yet Georgia does have other agreements with states to exchange information regarding traffic tickets their licensed drivers acquire out of state.

Sources say that Georgia does not post 14 mph or under speeding tickets on your GA driving record and the GA violation points list does not mention points for speeding citations of under 14 mph either. You may want to check with the Georgia Department of Driver Services (DDS) to make certain this is still true since state laws can change.

It may be that this out of state violation will be placed on your Georgia record but not assigned points, again the DDS should be able to tell you exactly how they will deal the VA ticket and your driving record.
