By $100 you mean overall or per month? Per month would break my already unstable finances x.x

I don't think I will. But the idea of it happening again scares me. 

I might do that tomorrow actually.

Hmm alright I may do that as well

How much rates rise after speeding tickets

If you have speeding tickets on your record, you might be considered a risky driver and face insurance increases.

But exactly how much speeding affects your car insurance rates varies by company. In a NerdWallet study, we sampled quotes in two states to see how much rates spiked after speeding 11 to 15 mph over the limit.

After one speeding ticket: Expect at least a slap on the wrist — a rate increase of $100 to $150 a year. Some insurers hike rates by several hundred dollars a year, however.  https://www.nerdwallet.com/blog/insurance/how-much-car-insurance-quotes-rise-after-an-accident-or-violation/

So probably like $100-$150 increase over the course of the year.  However, that's a pretty good amount if they hold that against you for 2 or 3 years before it comes off your record.  

What's the amount on the ticket, though?  10mph and under might not even apply.  I'd call my agent.

Oh ok... thats not too horrible. He said I was going 15 over the limit. I guess my only other worry is in my job field getting a ticket is risky. If I get 3 tickets I can't be a caregiver until they're off my record which can take between 3 and 5 years.
