Everything I can find online about your type of situation (with many of the notes written by lawyers) is "only your insurance company can answer that question".

But the overwhelming majority say your insurance will "probably not" be able to see it and "probably won't" increase your rates based on it.

Universally, the lawyers say "the officer cut you a huge break" and could've given you serious problems had they chosen to.

If you're given a worse ticket (improper turn, failure to signal, failure to maintain lane, failure to stop or yield, failure to keep right, or any other similar ticket), it's exactly your type of ticket that lawyers hope to get your ticket brought down to. But you were fortunate enough to get that golden ticket handed to you without having to pay for a lawyer!

I agree for sure I was given a huge break as I could have gotten a ticket for reckless driving too.

I called up Allstate and the lady I spoke to said she did not know any information about this and would need account information to transfer me to someone who would be able to answer my question. I was reluctant to give any information as I have heard that insurance companies often don't check records for months and don't want to bring it to their attention unless its needed.

I'd be reluctant, too. If I were asking them, I'd be doing the ol' "theorectically speakinggg...because this happened to a friend..." routine. Good luck!

That is exactly what I said when I called from a friend's phone saying this happened to a friend but I got no info without account information. I might try to call them again tomorrow in hopes of getting someone who can help me out with info without account info.
