Moving Violation in MD for NJ Driver

[ssk]

I am an New Jersey (NJ) driver. I got a moving violation in Maryland (MD). I got one point for it.

Can you advice on the following:
1) Will that point be transferred to NJ DMV?
2) Will it impact my insurance in NJ?

Thanks.What is the name of your state?

Now that I am in this soup...


1) Now that you are saying it will reflect on both DMV and insurance, what are your suggestions on how I can reduce its negative impact on both DMV and Insurance?

2) Also, how long does it stay on...
a) DMV records
b) Insurance records?

Thanks.

1.) If you haven't had a trial yet, try to make a plea bargain with the prosecutor. If you've already had a trial and have been found guilty and this point has been assigned, then it is too late.

When I went to MD district court everyone who pleaded guilty got probation before judgement. it is worth your while to show up. if the cop doesn't show ask for dismissal and object to continuance (the state set up the time didn't they).

If he does show up and everyone is getting PBJ then in my opinion that is a good option, as long as you don't plan on getting any more infractions.

be very careful in the communist enclave of md it IS A RACKET.

It varies by company, but its generally 3 to 5 years.
