Traffic violation - warning ticket - does it go on record?
Well I'm not doing so well with driving over here so far - had my car for 3 weeks and so far got 1 parking ticket in NYC, and got pulled today for speeding in CT. Officer was very nice and friendly which came as a surprise compared to the condescending British traffic police! He said watch your speed, I apologised and he replied "Don't worry, if I had a new car I would be doing exactly the same thing..."
He issued a warning ticket - anybody know if this goes on record? |

FYI...most of us are nice and friendly unless the people we are interacting with aren't...then all bets are off.. besides which, its a traffic infraction and not the end of the world...in this case you wont get points and the insurance company wont find out... I would check the police department/state troopers website to be 100% sure... Have a great day:) |

As far as I'm aware, a warning ticket is meaningless.

Its the points on your license that are the problem (at least in MI) I got 2 points when I got my speeding ticket. This in turn raises my insurance $100 every 6 months. By the time I am done my speeding ticket will have cost me over $700 :( The points stay for 3 years too... as long as you didn't get any points I wouldn't worry.

But warning tickets are different than an actual ticket ticket!

The only real reason for a warning ticket is it can't be disputed. Yes it does remain on record (not sure for how long) but it won't count against you in the way that points on a license will from getting a ticket. I had one once for not clearly displaying the tax/year decal on the tag (plate). There was a black plastic license frame which partially sat over the tag edge with the dealers name on it and came with the car when I bought it.
