According to my insurance company, it's illegal to raise people's rates for
speeding tickets. They can drop you if you get a bunch, but they can't raise
your rates. They can raise your rates for DWI, or reckless driving. I was
told this when I was trying to decide whether to take DD, or pay a ticket. I
ended up just paying the ticket since you have to pay so many extra charges to
take DD. ($38 court costs, $10 to get record, DD costs).
