An Out-of-State Ticket Can Impact Your Insurance Rates

North Carolina is among the majority of states that belong to the Non-Resident Violator Compact. The only states that do not belong to the NRVC are Michigan, Wisconsin, California, Montana, Oregon and Alaska.

If your home state is an NRVC member, then your North Carolina traffic citation will be reported to your state. If you fail to answer your North Carolina traffic ticket by failing to appear in court or pay your fine, your home state will be notified and your license within that state will be suspended.

That’s why it’s important to contact a North Carolina traffic ticket and speeding ticket defense attorney right away. At Reece & Reece, Attorneys at Law, we can handle your ticket just as we would for a North Carolina resident. Instead of advising you to admit guilt and pay your fine right away, we’ll explore all your legal options, including a dismissal or plea bargain that could reduce the charges against you. If you sign a waiver, then you will not have to return to Johnston County to make an appearance in your case. A Reece & Reece traffic ticket lawyer can handle everything for you.

However, keep in mind that a North Carolina conviction could give you insurance points in your home state and cause your premiums to rise. We can research that aspect as well and do our best to help you avoid making higher insurance payments as a result of your Johnston County ticket.
