usually if you get 2 of the same tickets, you get your license suspended. Also if you get 4 or more tickets in one yr or 7 or more in 2 yrs you get your license suspended.

It all depends on if Illinois is a points state or not...for every ticket you get you have points put on your lic...and if you have too many points then your lic is gone.

In AZ the tickets drop off after 2 years I think...

Best way is to ask a cop if you see one.

Tipsy_AA has a little shameless behaviour in the past
it depends on how much over you were going too. Like 10 miles over, youre ok. 25 miles over, you're fuked and right then and there your liscense is gone. my friend got 3 speeding tickets before his was suspended in Georgia. They were all minor speeding tickets though.

when you get a speeding ticket, can your insurance price go up before the court date or do they have to wait after the court date?

12 pts typically. Most speeding tickets are 2-4 pts. 4 pts tend to be 20mph+. Chances are you ins company will drop you b4 you get to 12 pts.

It goes up as soon as the ticket is submitted to them. Chances are after the court date. B/C they wont find out about it if you beat it.
