Car Insurance Question  If my 15 yr. old got a minor in consumption ticket and is not old enough to get a permit yet, will this affect insurance rates when she is able to drive?

Most states will start a driving record for a person even if they do not yet have a driver's license if the person has violations that would be placed on a driver's history. So if your state started a driving record for your 15 year old and placed the minor in consumption violation on it then an insurance company will be able to see it once your teen receives their permit and/or license.

Alcohol offenses are typically taken very seriously by auto insurance companies. Having a driver who may operate a vehicle while being impaired can be considered quite a risk for insurance providers.

State insurance laws and insurance company guidelines differ but it is likely that your child's insurance rates will be affected if she is convicted of his citation for a minor in consumption (or minor in possession).
