Question 1

I had just been at my girlfriends bayhouse, so obvioiusly i was in a good mood,and there was nobody out on a highway. Then WHAM red and blue. It wasnt excessive speed or anything,so i assumed that i had a tailight out, but then he gave me a ticket. now what happens to my insurace? do i get points on my provisional license?do they revoke it? Your insurance is through a private company. They can raise your premium if they want. - Mori
2) you `might get some points on your license but for your insurance. some insurance has what they call first time forgiveness, depending on your insurance company. - bandit_60
3) Most cops will pull you over if you're exceeding the limit by at least 10 miles per hour. That's why I always drive 9 miles over the limit lol. Some cops will just give you a warning for going 15 over, so it sounds like you got a hard*ss:) In most states, if it's your first speeding ticket, you might be able to take traffic school and avoid getting points on your license. Traffic school is usually about 6 to 8 hours on a Saturday. License revocation laws vary from state to state, but I'm pretty sure that in most states you'd have to get several tickets within a specified time frame. I grew up in Minnesota and took Driver's Ed there, and they don't revoke your license unless you have three tickets in less than a year, I think. - starbaby1981
4) I've never had my insurance to go up do to a speeding ticket,just pay the ticket and forget about it .You don't won't to get alot of tickets in a years time or they will go up on your insurance. - Handyman
