Friend of a friend who lives in NC just got an 11 over speeding ticket from a state officer in Arkansas.

Will an Arkansas ticket put points on their NC license?

I know of two cases where a VA ticket and a LA ticket never surfaced back to the drivers home state of NC.

This person is fearing an auto insurance increase and is considering hiring a lawyer instead. Should they worry about this Arkansas ticket coming back to haunt them in NC?

Thanks

More than likely your friend is going to end up with points on his license if he simply pleads guilty and pays. Everything is becoming mainstreamed via computer these days and its less likely that tickets will disappear like they used to. I personally would try fighting ANY ticket that would create points on my license, but that is me. Whether or not he can successfully fight the ticket depends on how good the attorney is and how lenient the judge is, and how clean his license was before the ticket. A driver I worked with got his 3rd ticket and tried fighting it and still got the fines and points on his license. I got a nice 2 point ticket for "failure to yield" by an ohio trooper who claimed when I made a left turn I made a car slow down for me. This was a notoriously dangerous intersection with no traffic devices for left turns and I had traffic backed up behind me for almost half a mile. I hired an attorney and fortunately the judge was familiar with the intersection and threw the ticket out. It also helped that my license was totally clean prior to that incident. It's a gamble, but for me personally, I wouldnt accept points on my license graciously, because my cdl is my livelyhood.
