You have to show proof of insurance any time an officer asks to see it, even if you don't get a ticket. Many states have made mandatory auto insurance a law. Therefore any time you are stopped for some infraction involving the use of your auto, proof of insurance is included with the showing of your license and registration.

I got a ticket for having no proof of insurance if i go to court with insurance will my ticket get droped?

The ticket will only get dropped if you have proof that you HAD insurance at the time of the ticket had been issued. You may get the ticket fine lowered with proof that you now have the required insurance.

If given a ticket for no proof of insurance and insurance had lapsed but have since gotten insurance what should I do?

the only thing that matters is whether or not you had insurance at the date you got pulled over. if you got insurance two weeks later that will not work. if you had valid insurance but did not have a copy of it with you contact the court and let them know...they will ask for proof of coverage. if you can provide that they will dismiss the ticket. acceptable proof of insurance is an insurance card showing you had coverage on said date or a letter of experience from your insurance company.


If you only have a driver's permit and are ticketed for not wearing a seatbelt in someone else's car will your insurance be raised?

"If you only have a driver's permit and are ticketed for not wearing a seatbelt in someone else's car will your insurance be raised?" It depends on how your state treats seat belt violations. In most states they are not entered on your record so they will have no effect on your insurance. In other states they are entered and may cause a slight insurance increase but it will be negligble compared to a speeding ticket. lwpat http://www.speedingticketcentral.com


How does driving without a seatbelt effect your insurance in GA?

Seat belt law is nation wide and In my state it works as no seat belt on when not driving only the passenger it is $80.00 and this mark is added to your drivers lice. should you own a car and get this ticket you get not only the fine for not having it on you now also get insurance increase. You have a higher payment now then you did before. It is the same no matter what kind of ticket you get, you get a insurance increase


If your insurance rates increase because of a seat belt citation does your bill actually say the increase is because of a seat belt citation?

i discussed this recently with geico. aparently from what they told me in Illinois the only thing a seat belt ticket does to the insurance is take the seatbelt discount off of your policy. do in the discount box the seatbelt discount is no longer displayed. there is no set insurance rate increase.. according to geico.


Can a Georgia resident get a ticket in Tennessee for no proof of insurance if pulled over?

Yes. You have to conform to the traffic laws of the state you are driving in, even if you are from another state. If you're from Georgia (which requires auto insurance by law) and got pulled over in Tennessee for not having insurance, you have to pay for that ticket in Tennessee. The only states that don't require auto insurance are New Hampshire and Wisconsin. All other states have a requirement. However if you live in New Hampshire, as an example, and drive into Massachusetts, and an officer asks to see license, registration and proof of insurance, and you are not covered, you will get a ticket for driving without insurance in the state of Massachusetts.
