Is It Really That Serious?
Nearly every driver gets a speeding ticket or other moving violation at some point over the course of his or her driving life. One or two tickets spread out over 10 years probably won’t have too much of a negative effect. However, insurance companies are beginning to keep careful records and even a single ticket can result in increased premiums or denied insurance if you try to change companies. All of a sudden, that speeding ticket fine becomes a lot more expensive.
