Will a ticket for not wearing a seat belt cause my insurance rates to rise?

Generally, this type of ticket or violation will not cause your insurance premiums to rise. However, there are situations when it might raise your rates if you have a high frequency of being cited for this.

Some carriers may remove discounts for safe driver, which isn't technically raising your rates, but the bottom line is that your rates are higher.
