Is inattentive driving a moving violation in Kansas?
I was driving fairly carefree the other day, and I must’ve done something to attract the attention of a cop. He gave me an inattentive driving ticket but wasn’t forthcoming on the details. I don’t want my insurance to go up. In Kansas, is inattentive driving considered a moving violation?

Fortunately, inattentive driving is not a moving violation in Kansas. Although the car is in motion when the infraction occurs, the Kansas Department of Licensing doesn’t consider inattentive driving a major charge. This ticket is more of a deterrent and a warning to pay more attention behind the wheel.
Because inattentive driving is not a moving violation, it doesn’t go on your permanent record and doesn’t add any points to your license. However, the fine can vary based on where you live. As a general rule, you can reasonably expect to pay about $100 for an inattentive driving ticket—this is the amount charged in the state capital of Topeka.
Although you won’t see anything on your permanent record, having affordable
