Is child restraint traffic citation in state of NH considered a moving violation? Do you get points on your driving records?

I would appreciate it if a NH licensed attorney could respond. Also, what if you are from MA and you get this citation in NH. Does it effect your drivers record in MA? Regards

I think we already talked about this, and it is the MA RMV that would be affected, so you want a MA answer. If this is your first minor traffic surchargeable event in 5 years, no points will be assigned. If it is not, it is a minor traffic violation and two surchargeable points will be assigned. Read here about how the MA RMV handles out-of-state citations: http://www.massdot.state.ma.us/rmv/MeritRatingBoard/SDIPandYourAutoInsurancePolicy.aspx

Massachusetts will consider this to be a moving violation. Presumably, NH will report this moving violation to the Massachusetts RMV. It will affect your driver's license in that it will be considered a "minor moving violation" and a "surchargeable event." If you accrue 12 moving violations in a 5 year period your license will be suspended as a Habitual Traffic Offender (HTO). If you accrue 3 surchargeable events in a 2 year period, you will be required to take a safe driver course.
