Refusing to pay a traffic ticket from another state can effect your fica score how many points if reported?

Question

I have no fear of losing the driver license just want to know if they can report it, and if so how many points off my fica score?

Answer 1

I live in Indiana and got a speeding ticket in Florida in April 1999. I didn't pay it and a collection company contacted me February 2008 about the ticket. They told me that it would go on my credit report, but I keep checking and I haven't seen anything on there.

Answer 2

They report it to the credit reporting agencies.  

Answer 3

You need to learn if your state and the other have reciprocal agreements. We do with all the states we border upon - if we don't pay a ticket in one of those states we cannot renew our license until we pay it.

Answer 4

The problem is not your credit rating but you will lose your license.  

Answer 5

Why even mess around with it? Just pay the ticket.

Answer 6

The only way it would effect your FICO score would be if the county put you in collection with an agency or they placed a judgement on you. You would then get notified by mail when those kind of thinks were happening. And yes, if that does happen and you have good credit, You will lose a 100 points easy.
