It depends upon your definition of "minor". In most states, motor vehicle insurance is a legal requirement, often subsumed under the state's "Financial Responsibility Law". The ticket that you are issued is, however, often considered to be a "non-criminal infraction".
The type of insurance that is required varies by state. At one time, it was common only to have minimal coverage to cover one's own medical expenses and lost wages ("no fault" coverage), but inscreasingly, states have required some sort of liability insurance to cover the "other party" in case of fault.
Whatever the type of insurance required by law, proof must generally be shown to register a car and to get or to renew a driver's license. If one is stopped for another violation and insurance cannot be shown (even if there is no collision), that is often a separate violation that can result in a license and registration suspension.
All of the foregoing is general information. State law governs specific requirements.

How does getting a seat belt ticket as a minor affect your insurance?
well first of all were you the driver? im not sure if it is considered a moving violation (may depend on whether you were the driver) but in case it IS a moving violation you can attend traffic school to conceal it from your insurance company, traffic school will negate the point on your license and will hide your ticket from public view, which is what the insurance companies can see, if it isn't a moving vilation it shouldn't hurt your premiums. just make sure YOU wear the seatbelt and of course that everyone else does as well, since youre a minor you might end up giving a ride to another minor, in California, if someone below the age of 16 is caught without a seatbelt you will get a point on your license, which WILL affect your premium unless you cana go to traffic school for that.
