Almost every state (except New Hampshire and Virginia) requires its licensed drivers to have a minimum amount of insurance coverage. The required insurance generally includes bodily injury liability coverage and property damage liability coverage in certain minimum amounts.

The cost of insurance is affected by many factors, including the driver’s driving record. A single speeding ticket can increase your insurance rates by as much as 25-30%, and more serious offenses such as DUI/DWI, street racing, or hit-and-run can increase the cost of your insurance by 75% or more.

A driver who has received a ticket or citation for a criminal offense or traffic violation with the potential to increase their insurance rates may want to consult with a lawyer who has relevant experience and expertise.

In North Dakota, as in most states, drivers are required to carry a minimum amount of auto insurance. This includes bodily injury liability coverage, with a minimum of $25,000 per person and $50,000 per accident, and property damage liability coverage, with a minimum of $25,000. North Dakota also requires drivers to have uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage, as well as personal injury protection (PIP). The cost of auto insurance in North Dakota can be influenced by various factors, including the driver's record. Traffic violations such as speeding tickets can lead to an increase in insurance premiums, and more severe infractions like DUI/DWI or hit-and-run can result in even higher costs. Drivers in North Dakota who have received citations or have been involved in traffic violations that may impact their insurance rates should consider consulting with an attorney who specializes in traffic law to explore their options and potentially mitigate the consequences.
