Points/Insurance between PA and NJ

License, Insurance, Registration for NJ, got speeding ticket in PA.

How does that work, do they work together? PA and NJ work together on almost everything so I assume this does too, but will my insurance know and will my NJ license get points?
 
I should know this... I live in PA and the only accident I was ever in was in NJ.... my gf is from NJ too and goes to school her in PA.... interesting....
 
I think the question you should be asking is directed at your NJ officials... and ask... "how do points on out of state traffic violations affect my licence or insurance status here"

that should answer your question pretty fast.... especially if you act clueless.... ask a desk cop
 
yes ... if you pay the ticket your license will get points from PA. if you go to the DMV website they have a list of all states that they can get the points from. I got busted in DE 3 weeks ago visiting my gf ... sucks. I'm gonna go to court though and try to get the points taken off
 
BAH!

so does that mean that you don't have to pay a parking ticket if you're nonresident?
