Wouldn't it be cheaper to just PAY a speeding ticket and plead guilty?
In the short term, yes. But in the long term (within the next three years), No!
This all has to do with your automobile insurance coverage. When you pay the ticket you are pleading guilty to the traffic ticket. This counts as a conviction toward your driving record and will generally raise your automobile insurance premium quite significantly.
According to a 2022 analysis by Nerdwallet.com, car insurance rates increase up to 25% when a person is convicted, or otherwise pleads guilty to a speeding ticket.
Ultimately, how much your rate will increase depends upon your insurance carrier, your automobile policy, the state where you hold your driver's license, and your driving record. Comprehensive data showing how long your insurance rates will stay increased has been compiled by The Zebra, one of the nation's leading authorities in helping individuals shop for automobile and homeowner's insurance.
In addition, multiple convictions for traffic violations within a certain period of time can suspend a person's driver's license.
