Answer:
The majority of states are members of what is called the Non-Resident Violators Compact (NRVC). This allows them to share information regarding driving records, criminal records, etc. For instance, if you apply for a driver's license in one state, but you have a suspended license in another state, you will not be allowed to obtain one in the new state. When a motorists is cited in another member state and fails to pay the ticket, the other state notifies the driver's home state and the home state will suspend the driver's license until the driver takes care of the matter in the other state. Laws vary by state, but the NRVC typically only applies to moving or serious violations. All states are members except Michigan, Wisconsin, California, Montana, and Alaska.
