What Type Of Tickets Affect Your Car Insurance Rate?
I received an email from a driver shocked at the fact that you can be ticketed for a dirty licence plate. What's even more surprising is that it carries as much weight as a
speeding ticket does when it comes to the cost of your insurance. One ticket can cause your rate to increase by $500, two tickets by $1,000, three tickets could trigger a
cancellation.
Another friend of mine got 7 tickets, at one time, by a police officer. To
