Illinois insurance car
Reader’s Question:
I just want to know if the speeding ticket I received in the state of Iowa will be transferred to where Im licensed. I live in Illinois.

Good question Manny.
Yes,
Your speeding ticket in Iowa will be forwarded to the Illinois driving record.
Both Iowa and Illinois are members of the Drivers License Compact (DLC). Both member states are required to share information regarding traffic violation convictions. So the Iowa courts will notify the Illinois Secretary of State (SOS) of this speeding ticket that you received if you plead guilty and thus are convicted of this violation.
According to the IL Driver’s Handbook chapter 6 , the Secretary of State keeps records and keeps of the traffic infractions and accidents you accumulate while residing in Illinois. If you are convicted of a moving violation while operating your vehicle in another state, the violation will be put on your record as though it happened in Illinois.
Goodluck!
