Hi, I am applying for the NCLEX-RN in Ca. I have a speeding ticket of 94 MPH in highway about a year ago, I did drivers classes and paid a fine. Do I need to report that to the Board of Nursing and disclose it? Thanks.

If it was just an infraction, you only need to disclose if the fine was over $1000 OR if drugs/alcohol were involved. More info here: License Discipline and ConvictionsIf you are not sure if your speeding was an infraction or not, check with the CA DMV. Hope this helps. Best of luck!
