Licensed in WA, got ticket in CA ??
Does anyone know if if is possible to keep 'points' off my record in WA
after a speeding ticket in CA? I called WA DOL, and the answer I received was, "If it is reported to us as a conviction, then it will go against your record. If it is reported to us as a 'dismissal' because you attend traffic school, then it won't go against your record." Um... can anyone translate that for me?!? LOL The ticket was in Siskiyou County, if that makes a difference. Yes, I was speeding, and I have no problem paying the fine, but I would like it to *not* effect my insurance rates if I can. This was my first ticket in over 10 years. Thanks! |

If you don't mind paying the fine, then you shouldn't mind having to pay for additional auto insurance surcharges. If I were you, I'd try to get out of paying for either (prepare a defense, go to court and possibly get an acquittal). Try http://www.motorists.org for more information. |

Dismissed in exchange, otherwise you'll have to go back to fight it. California is a popular vacation destination, and they (in some areas) target tourists. They probably will go after you one way or another if you try to do nothing, so the easiest and cheapest way to handle it might be the traffic school option. You can go back to fight it, but that might cost a bit. Sorry, my state does this a lot. Dave |

That's up to your insurance company, not the DOL. One ticket in 10 years? They might not care; Talk to your agent - ideally, hypothetically. -- ~/Garth |"I believe that it is better to tell the truth than a lie.

This makes a hell of a lot of difference. > Yes, I was speeding, and > I have no problem paying the fine, but I would like it to *not* effect > my insurance rates if I can. IOW you want a free ride off the safe drivers. Scratch a liar find a thief. > This was my first ticket in over 10 > years. IOW you're a chronic repeat offender. Society has a use for people like you at the license plate factory. I hope the judge tosses you in jail and throws away the key. Shame on you. > > Thanks! |

What nonsense. 1 in 10 years means maybe 5 or 6 in a lifetime. Run into the wrong cop before the month's end and you're a victim of a quota. |

BTW if you run into cops, you're not a victim. Or is it OK in your books to crash into someone of the law enforcement profession. |
