Find answers to your legal question.





My friend and I were in my car, she got a ticket for speeding. 85 in a 70mph zone. I asked the highway?

Patrol man, "Will my Insurance rates go up?" He said, "No!" I said, "Why not, when my car was being used while she got a ticket?
He said, "because she's the one who got the ticket"! I need real honest answers please.

Moving violations are associated with the DRIVER (his/her driver's license).

Parking violations are associated with the vehicle.

Listen to the highway patrolman.

it all depends on where you live and on the insurance company you deal with. With most companies, you're rates won't go up until your next term, but since it's your friend that got charged, it won't affect you at all.

No -it goes on her record and her insurance rates will go up, not yours.

If the ticket is in her name, I don't think it will affect you.

Kentata is Correct. The Speeding violation is a criminal offense. Only the person who committed the crime will be held responsible. You should however, be a little ticked at your friend for driving your car that fast...Not a very nice thing to do!


Bratso
The highway patrolman is correct not to worry.

Honest Joe at your service, lady.

Your insurance will not be affected. Speeding infractions and anything resulting out of that action is on the shoulders of the driver of the vehicle.

There presently is talk of changes in the insurance industry to make vehicle owners more responsible for moving violations incurred by drivers who may have borrowed your vehicle.

The person who got the ticket will be responsible, the ticket goes with the drivers licence, not the vehicle.
