Tickets and Insurance
Is your insurance company for your car notified if you get a ticket while on a bike? Does it depend on the state?

So far as I know it is not considered a points violation.
Somehow my ins company doesn't seem to care about my speeding points either
hum dee dumm....
Don't ask don't tell I suppose.

I got a bicycle ticket that gave me one point on my driving record. Bashhtards!!! I think it affected my insurance too.

On the positive note, there are loads of lawyers in traffic court who will get the fine discharged for $120.00 bucks so you're better off paying them instead of the judge.

PA is a nice state then. The max penalty for anything not involving another car is 10 bucks here.
