License Points vs Insurance Points for Traffic Tickets in North Carolina
Traffic tickets in NC, especially if they’re considered moving violations, are often assigned a specific point value. License Points vs Insurance Points can be a big deal, depending on the type and severity of the traffic ticket. . .and if you’re convicted – Bill Powers
Insurance points are not necessarily the same as motor vehicle points, although for NC traffic tickets, they’re related at least in part. It’s also true that the amount of points issued are not always exactly equal. So for something like passing a stopped school bus ticket, it’s important to consider how the “points” could affect your driver’s license in North Carolina and your insurance premiums.
