The statutory fine and the payable amount.
South Dakota’s speed statutes classify ordinary speeding as a Class 2 misdemeanor. Section 22-6-2 permits up to a $500 fine, 30 days imprisonment, or both for that class. The Unified Judicial System fine-and-bond schedule publishes lower fine-and-cost payment amounts for eligible citations; the sentencing maximum is not the amount automatically due.

Your record is a separate cost.
South Dakota’s statutory point table expressly excludes speeding from the 2-point other-moving-violation category. Ordinary speeding therefore adds no points. Reckless driving is an 8-point offense.
Fifteen points within 12 consecutive months or 22 within 24 months can trigger suspension after the applicable process. The first point suspension is 60 days, then 6 months and 1 year based on the previous 48-month suspension record.
The point-trigger rules compare 12- and 24-month windows. They do not turn an ordinary speeding conviction into a point offense or promise removal of that conviction.

The 2026 ValuePenguin quote study reports a 22% average increase for one speeding ticket in South Dakota. Your insurer, coverage and driving history can produce a different result. Read the study and its sample.
The NAIC 2023 combined average premium for South Dakota is $1,157.70 per year. This historical measure combines liability, collision and comprehensive averages.
At $1,157.70 per year and 22%, the illustration adds $254.69 per year, about $21.22 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.

The questions
behind the ticket.
How much is 35 over in South Dakota?
The estimate shown is $232.50. Eligible scheduled speeding charges. The citation, clerk and judge control appearance requirements and any additional charges.
Will my insurance go up?
A conviction can affect premiums, but your insurer uses its own rules. The 2026 ValuePenguin quote study reports a 22% average increase for one speeding ticket in South Dakota. 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?
The published DPS point rules provide no general course-credit option. Ask the named court about any approved disposition before taking a course; ordinary speeding already carries no statutory points. 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?
Pay an eligible citation before the scheduled court date or appear as instructed. The Unified Judicial System warns that failing to pay or appear can result in a warrant. Missing a deadline can add consequences. Ask the court about extensions or payment help before it passes.
