Is a speeding ticket a moving violation in California?
I was ticketed for going 10 miles over the posted speed limit and I'm concerned about this affecting my driving record. Will this speeding ticket be considered a moving violation in California?

Tickets are the worst! A speeding ticket in California is a moving violation based on the state’s traffic laws. The truth is, a speeding ticket is classified as a moving violation in every state’s lawbook.
The fine for speeding in California will depend on just how fast you were going. If you were traveling between 1 and 15 mph over the posted speed limit your ticket will likely be around $35. But the higher the speed, the pricier the fine—drivers in California have been known to receive speeding tickets in the 200 to $400 range.
