Pennsylvania speeding carries 2 points at 6–10 mph over, 3 at 11–15, 4 at 16–25 and 5 at 26 or more. Speeds 31 or more over also require a PennDOT hearing. Active work zones and drivers under 18 can trigger separate suspensions. A section 3365(b) school-zone conviction carries 3 points. School-zone fines are charge-specific and are withheld here rather than using the ordinary section 3362 formula. A section 3365(b) school-zone conviction carries 3 points.

At six points, PennDOT begins corrective action. At 11 or more points, section 1539 requires suspension: five days per point for the first suspension, ten for the second, fifteen for the third, then one year for subsequent suspensions. Age, active work zones and other serious offenses can trigger separate action.

PennDOT removes three points after each 12 consecutive qualifying months without a point-bearing violation, suspension or revocation. Reaching zero and staying there for 12 months resets treatment of a later accumulation. This differs from removing a conviction from history.

Insurance deserves its own line.

The 2026 ValuePenguin quote study reports a 21% average increase for one speeding ticket in Pennsylvania. Your insurer, coverage and driving history can produce a different result. Read the study and its sample.

The NAIC 2023 combined average premium for Pennsylvania is $1,273.46 per year. This historical measure combines liability, collision and comprehensive averages.

At $1,273.46 per year and 21%, the illustration adds $267.43 per year, about $22.29 per month.

Applying a 2026 quote-study percentage to the historical 2023 NAIC combined premium is illustrative math. These sources use different populations and coverage methods; this is not a measured post-ticket average or a current quote. No future premium increase is included in a court fine.

Official payment instructions

Ask about traffic school

At a first accumulation of six or more points, PennDOT offers a Special Point Examination or Driver Improvement School. Passing the examination removes two points; completing the school removes four. A later accumulation can require a hearing and school. This state corrective program does not automatically dismiss the speeding citation.

Official eligibility rules

Request a hearing

Rule 407 generally requires notifying the issuing authority of a guilty or not-guilty plea within ten days after a citation is issued. Follow your citation and the named court's instructions, including any hearing or payment-plan dates; different initiating documents can have different procedures.

Pennsylvania reckless driving requires conscious disregard for the safety of people or property. Section 3736 defines a separate offense without a universal mph-over cutoff; the charge and circumstances matter.

behind the ticket.

How much is 35 over in Pennsylvania?

Will my insurance go up?

A conviction can affect premiums, but your insurer uses its own rules. The 2026 ValuePenguin quote study reports a 21% average increase for one speeding ticket in Pennsylvania. Your insurer, coverage and driving history can produce a different result. A points-free outcome does not promise an unchanged premium.

Does traffic school remove points?

At a first accumulation of six or more points, PennDOT offers a Special Point Examination or Driver Improvement School. Passing the examination removes two points; completing the school removes four. A later accumulation can require a hearing and school. This state corrective program does not automatically dismiss the speeding citation. Confirm eligibility before enrolling or paying your ticket.

Is this the amount I should pay?

No. The estimate explains a published schedule. Pay only the amount confirmed by the court handling the citation, through its official instructions.

What if I do not respond on time?

Rule 407 generally requires notifying the issuing authority of a guilty or not-guilty plea within ten days after a citation is issued. Follow your citation and the named court's instructions, including any hearing or payment-plan dates; different initiating documents can have different procedures. Missing a deadline can add consequences. Ask the court about extensions or payment help before it passes.
