Will every California speeding ticket add a point?

Not every situation is the same. A conviction may add a point depending on the violation and final disposition.

Does traffic school erase the ticket?

Traffic school does not mean the event never happened. Court and DMV treatment should be verified.

Can points affect insurance?

Insurance consequences can vary by insurer and driving history.

What if my citation does not show a code?

The court docket or complete citation record may be needed to confirm the exact charge.
