When most of us think about driving infractions, we picture the obvious ones: speeding, running red lights, or texting while driving. However, at H. Dean Allison Insurance, serving Altoona, PA, we are aware of several lesser-known violations that can still affect your driving record and, consequently, your auto insurance rates.<\/p>\n

Rolling Through Stop Signs<\/h2>\n

You might not think twice about slowing down at a stop sign without coming to a complete stop, especially when no one else is around. However, "rolling stops" are a common infraction and can lead to a ticket. Pennsylvania law requires a full stop at every stop sign, even in quiet neighborhoods.<\/p>\n

Driving With Snow on Your Car<\/h2>\n

It might be tempting to brush off just enough snow to see out of your windshield on a frosty morning, but did you know that failing to clear snow or ice from your car can result in a fine? If flying debris causes an accident or obstructs another driver’s view, you could be held responsible.<\/p>\n

Obstructing Your License Plate<\/h2>\n

That custom license plate frame might look sharp, but if it blocks any part of the plate, especially the state name or registration stickers, you could be cited for an infraction. Law enforcement needs to be able to see your license plate clearly, and any obstruction is considered a violation.<\/p>\n

Keep Your Record and Your Rates Clean<\/h2>\n

These infractions might seem minor, but they can add up quickly and affect your driving record. As your record changes, so can your insurance premiums. The good news is that staying informed can help you avoid unnecessary surprises.<\/p>\n
