What a red light & stop sign ticket costs in Georgia
| Typical fine | Up to $1,000 court fine (misdemeanor traffic offense); camera citations $70 civil |
|---|---|
| License points | 3 points (running a red light or stop sign) |
| Insurance impact | A signal conviction is a rated moving violation in Georgia — expect roughly a 10–20% premium bump for three years. |
| License risk | 3 points toward the 15-in-24-months threshold; a single conviction won't suspend an adult license but stacks quickly with other tickets. |
