How Long Is A Speeding Ticket Held Against You For Auto Insurance Purposes?

I have a speeding ticket that was issued back in 2002 and am wondering if this will have any bearing on auto insurance when I purchase a new policy in the near future.
TIA

    From what I have seen, it is usually 12-18 months from the date of the the guilty finding. Contact your insurance company. They will give you the correct answer.

    Most states remove non-felony traffic tickets after 2-3 years so you should be ok.
    You can go to your local D.M.V. and request a copy of your driving record if you want – they usually charge a fee of around $25 to obtain the copy.

    No doubt the easiest way to get insurance quotes is on the web.
    Why would you waste your time on the phone calling around?
    the last time i needed quotes on insurance i used one of these comparison sites and it was great.
    this is the site i used and it was quick like less than 5 mins.
    The last thing I want to do is listen to elevator music while waiting for a salesman.
    Anyway I got good quotes and ended up saving money so I was happy.
    So shop around and compare quotes which is easy on the net.
    Good starting point is at this site.

    It depends on your insurance company and their policies. Some are more “forgiving” than others.
