Speeding & Traffic Tickets
How Will a Ticket Affect my License?
In North Carolina, a conviction for a moving violation leads to the addition of points on your driving record. These points remain on your record for three years. If you accumulate more than twelve points within a three-year period, your license will be suspended for sixty days. Additionally, if you receive another eight points within the three years following a license reinstatement, your license could be suspended for six months.
How Will a Ticket Affect my Insurance?
Convictions for speeding and traffic tickets also result in the assessment of insurance points. The number of insurance points you receive directly impacts your insurance rates. Accumulating points for speeding or other traffic offenses can cause your insurance premiums to increase significantly.
