Question

How can I find the exact date of my speeding ticket?

I had a speeding ticket, doing 58mph in a 45mph zone, in Chandler, AZ, in 2016, but not sure of the exact month and day. I missed Defensive Driving class, paid a $245 fine and my insurance premium basically doubled!

You need to contact the DMV in Arizona. In most cases you can order a record of your driving history - but it might cost a small fee. Another thing to think about is your rate increase. That's a pretty big increase just for a speeding ticket. In 2020, the average increase for a speeding ticket in Arizona was $445 (the average annual rate with no violations being $1,416). If you're interested in looking for a better rate, use The Zebra to compare car insurance prices.
