The good news is, if your speed was less than 25 miles over the posted speed limit you may be able to avoid the fine and keep it off your driving record by taking a Driver's Safety Course if you haven't taken the course for the same reason within the past 12 month period. The next step to keep it off your record would be by asking for Deferred Adjudication (a form of probation). This is usually more expensive than taking a DSC but it keeps it off your driving record. The best thing to do is obey the speed limit.

You get points for any speeding ticket in Texas that is more than 10% over the legal limit.

It's two points for a moving violation. It's three points if an accident was involved.

Will it affect your insurance rates if you got a speeding ticket in Kentucky but live in another state if this is your first ticket and you are 29?

Kentucky Speeding Ticket "Will it affect your insurance rates if you got a speeding ticket in Kentucky but live in another state, if this is your first ticket and you are 29?" Out of state speeding tickets are generally reported to your home state and treated as if you received the speeding ticket in your state. That means that the DMV in your state will decide if the ticket will appear on your record and if you will receive any points. There are a lot of exceptions so only the DMV can tell you how this speeding ticket will be reported on your record. Then the insurance company will have to check your MVR to be aware of the ticket. This depends on your particular carrier but most do not check every year. It is unlikely that this one ticket will increase your rates unless you make a change in your policy which causes them to check your record. Two tickets will have serious consequences on your premiums so you need to really watch your speed for awhile. lwpat yes it will

If you've never had a speeding ticket but just got one which added six points to your license how will this affect your insurance?

The cost of your heavy right foot is about to come home and hit you in the bank account. The fact that you "never had a speeding ticket " is irrelevant to the situation you are now facing. Now you do have one, and it sounds like a really costly one at that. Perhaps you need to re-think your attitude towards driving laws, and how expensive it is to break them. Not only will you have to pay a large cash fine, upon conviction in court, but you will CONTINUE to pay for the next few years, in increased insurance costs.
