Ulysses S. Grant was given a traffic ticket while he was President. He was fined $20 for driving his horse too fast on a Washington street. The officer who stopped him did not recognize him at first and then wanted to let him go, but Grant commended for doing his job.

The warning was on the speed limit sign you blew by. There is no requirement for the officer to let you off on your first ticket.


Will you automatically get traffic school for your first ticket in california?

No, you are not automatically able to take traffic school. It really depends on the violation that you received. If you received a standard speeding ticket, not excessive speeding or aggressive driving, then you should be able to take the traffic school. I am assuming that because this is your first ticket you have not attended traffic school in the last 18 months. You need to look over your paperwork carefully when you receive it from the court and it will tell you what your options are. Depending on the county you received your ticket in, you may be able to take an online class.

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
