Cost Of A Speeding Ticket

Speeding tickets are the most common moving violations issued in this country. Many people consider them minor infractions. In addition, indeed, in some jurisdictions, going a few miles over the speed limit can be a civil infraction, not a criminal offense. However, in most jurisdictions, depending on the degree, you will experience the high cost of a speeding ticket in several ways. Speeding ticket fines can be as high as $500, depending on how much over the limit you were driving and how many prior arrests you have. But it doesn't stop there. If you have points or tickets on your driving record, you will probably have your rates increase for at least three years, as well. Finally, you will have a criminal record that will make your next ticket more severe, and the next, as well. The few seconds you save by speeding are not worth these consequences to your wallet and your record.
