What a red light & stop sign ticket costs in Florida
| Typical fine | $158 (camera notice) to roughly $262 (officer-issued citation) |
|---|---|
| License points | 4 points for running a red light; 3 points for a stop sign violation |
| Insurance impact | An officer-issued signal conviction is a rated moving violation — typically a 10–20% premium surcharge for several years. |
| License risk | Points count toward all three of Florida's suspension thresholds (12/12, 18/18, 24/36). |
Frequently asked questions
A camera Notice of Violation paid at $158 adds no points and isn't reported to insurers. Ignore it, though, and it becomes a uniform traffic citation with higher cost and real record consequences.
Often the citation can be dismissed or adjudication withheld — signal-timing evidence, intersection sightlines, and the officer's vantage point are all contestable. Attorneys in our network handle these hearings routinely.
Florida law bars camera citations for careful and prudent right turns on red. If your notice came from a rolling right turn, that's frequently a winnable challenge.
Paying an officer-issued citation is a conviction — 4 points plus an insurance surcharge that usually dwarfs the fine over three years. Contesting it typically comes out cheaper.
