The 6+ years in MA sucks -- other states are 3 or 4.

I also live in MA and my wife got 2 speeding tickets in upstate NY (81 and 82). In both counties (one outside Buffalo, the other along I-88), they offered online driver education courses to reduce the ticket to a non-moving violation.

My wife completed both, but only 1 worked, so on my current 2022-2023 policy, it shows a moving violation from 12/28/2016!

Her SDIP is also reduced (99 is the max). In MA, they use the "Safe Driver Insurance Plan" for points: https://www.mass.gov/info-details/sa...ance-plan-sdip. But this is technically over 6 years we are paying a surcharge. I assume it will fall off on the next policy and her SDIP will go back to 99.

New York allows that, if you can afford the attorney. They will change it to a parking ticket (non-moving violation) with no points and no impact to your insurance. It’s only an option IF you haven’t abused it before. My wife turned a ticket for 85 in a 65 on the Thruway into a parking ticket. The state/town still got their money but at least there was no negative impact insurance wise!
