Insurance rates for speeding convictions vary by company
The Times Record surveyed area insurers on rate changes after speeding convictions. Most firms rarely raise rates for a single speeding offense, instead applying merit-rating or ISO guidelines. Some agencies impose surcharges after accidents or multiple speeding violations, with increases ranging from 20 to 120 percent and up to 150 percent under state rules.
