Will my insurance rates go up if I get a ticket or citation as a teenager?

Yes, getting a ticket or citation as a teenager can often cause your insurance rates to go up. Insurance companies see this as a sign that you may be a higher risk driver. This can result in your insurance premium increasing, making it more expensive for you to be insured. It’s important to drive safely and follow the rules of the road to avoid getting tickets and potentially increasing your insurance rates.
