Default Speeding...Go me!-NOT. (this is not a rant)

Seeing that other speeding ticket thread reminded me, i never told ya'all, but on my way to a party (i was even the DD that night) on the 22nd of dec, i got pulled over. Im not going to tell you i wasnt speeding, cause i was. But what i didnt realize is that the limit went from 65 to 55 just a few seconds prior. I missed the sign. I mean straight up didnt see it. Oh well, it happens to the best of us. 71 in a 55. would have been in a 65, but...

I dont consider it a big thing, the officer was VERY polite and so i was too ( i would have been anyways). what could i say? I was speeding.

anyways, my point here is this, is there ANYTHING i can do to keep my insuarnce down after this? My ins is already $340 a month on one car. i cant afford it to go any higher. i was told by a friend that if you dont change your ins co and you keep your policy current, they will never re check your record. is this true?


anyways, merry christmas to me Oh well. I cant really be upset. I guess i did it to myself.

They wont re-run your ins until it comes time to renew your policy, that is when they run your record and see what you have.
