Yes, the Commonwealth of Virginia does report speeding tickets back to your home state of North Carolina. Both states are members of the Drivers License Compact (DLC) which requires party states to inform the licensing state of a motorist who received and was convicted of a moving violation out of state.

In Virginia, a speeding ticket for 15 mph over the speed limit is a 4 point offense and in North Carolina it can be a 3 point offense. As we mentioned both states are members of the DLC and thus exchange information between their courts and departments of motor vehicles.

Once your home state of North Carolina receives information regarding your conviction for this moving violation they will likely put it on your driving record.

The motor vehicle laws of NC allow for convictions occurring outside of North Carolina to be recorded on your driving record but points are assigned only for convictions occurring in North Carolina to the best of our knowledge. You will need to check with the NC Department of Transportation (DOT) to find out for certain if any points will be assigned.
