Reader’s Question:

I just want to know if the ticket I received in Kentucky will go to my driving record in Cincinnati OH?

Mike.

Thank you for asking Mike.

Ohio and Kentucky are both members of the Drivers License Compact. This agreement requires all member states to share all traffic infractions received by a motorist back to their home state where the person is licensed. So the Kentucky courts or Cabinet of Transportation will notify the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles about your KY ticket.

We have read in the past that Ohio does not assign points for out of state tickets, but will put the infraction or moving violations on your driving record. Ohio has changed their offense points system in the last few years so you may check with the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles (BMV) to get more information on how out-of-state traffic violation convictions are now dealt with.

Goodluck!
