The Non-Resident Violator Compact (NRVC) is a United Statesinterstate compact used by 44 states and Washington, D.C. to process traffic citations across state borders.
The Driver License Compact, a multi-state agreement to share driving record information between states, is valid in 45 states plus the District of.
Motorists cited for violations in a state that is not a member of the NRVC must post bail before being allowed to proceed. In addition, drivers licensed in a non-member state that are issued a citation in a member state will be processed normally. If the nonmember fails to pay the issued citation after being found guilty, the nonmember's privilege to drive in the issuing state will become suspended. Their home state license will remain unaffected.
When a motorist is cited in another member state and chooses not to respond to the ticket (such as not paying it), 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.
Some states will not take action on offenses like vehicle equipment and vehicle inspection if their driver has ignored an out of state citation of those offenses. Out of state moving violations are the focus of the compact and there will be no differences in focus under the Driver License Agreement.
History[edit]
The Non-Resident Violator Compact came into existence in the 1970s, originating from the northeastern states.
The Non-Resident Violator Compact is being superseded by the new Driver License Agreement (DLA) which also replaces the Driver License Compact. As planned by the DLC-NRVC Executive Board, when the Driver License Agreement is ratified by Non-Resident Violator Compact members, it will no longer be relevant.
