Do You Know Which States Have The Highest Number Of Ticketed Drivers?

More than 9.1 million speeding tickets were handed out to drivers between 2011 and 2017. But which states had the most frequent offenders? A Honda dealership in Yonkers, New York collected data on speeding tickets issued across 48 states over those 7 years – Arkansas and Louisiana were excluded.

Take a look at the states which hand out the most overall speeding tickets:
*It should be noted the top three states all have a minimum fining speed of one mile per hour over the posted limit.

1. California
2. New York
3. Florida
4. Georgia
5. North Carolina

That ranking may be highly skewed as those states also have the highest population. So Yonkers Honda also went ahead and sorted out the five states as the highest concentration of speeding tickets per person:

1. Wyoming
2. South Carolina
3. Oregon
4. Georgia
5. Washington

Overall, it was found that out of the 224.1 million licensed drivers in America, roughly 1 in 25 people were recorded to have a speeding ticket (not including duplicate offenders).
