What a red light & stop sign ticket costs in Arizona
| Typical fine | Roughly $250–$500 with surcharges |
|---|---|
| License points | 2 points (red light or stop sign violation) |
| Insurance impact | Rated as a moving violation — commonly a 10–20% premium increase for three years. |
| License risk | Counts toward the 8-point MVD threshold; a red light violation causing serious injury or death carries far heavier consequences. |
