Want to Know How Much Your Reckless Driving, Speeding or Other Virginia Ticket is Going To Increase Your Insurance?
Increased insurance premiums should be the only concern most drivers should have when they receive a Reckless driving or other traffic ticket in Virginia. The fact is, jail time and a loss of license are simply not realistic consequences except for a small percentage of drivers who were either going very fast or have horrible driving records. However, every single driver is required to carry insurance. And it is likely that your insurance company will review your record.
The website Insurance.com has created a special calculator which allows a person to get an estimate of how much their insurance will increase if they are convicted for different types of driving violations. The calculator is based on a review of nearly 500,000 insurance policies across the United States. The Law Office of Faraji Rosenthall has no relationship with Insurance.com and has no idea how legitimate their claim is. However, a quick search indicates that the website has been reviewed by such reputable sites as Forbes.com and Washingtonpost.com.
The calculator tells the user how much their insurance will increase based on the user’s location, marital status, whether they own or rent their home, years with the current insurance carrier, age and current premium. These are all factors most insurance companies consider when determining how much to charge. The calculator then determines how much a person can expect their premium to increase as a percentage of their current payments.
This new tool takes all the guess work out of trying to figure out whether it makes financial sense to hire our office to handle your case. Now you can simply use the tool, get an estimate of how much your insurance will go up per year and then multiply that number by the amount of time that type of conviction will stay on your record (Reckless Driving stays on your record for 11 years, many lesser traffic infractions fall off after only 3). A listing of how long a conviction stays on your driving record is listed here.
