Cars That Get The Most Speeding Tickets
If you get a lot of speeding tickets, it might not be because you have a lead foot. It could be your cars fault. According to the auto insurance site Insurify there are certain car brands that get ticketed for speeding more than other car brands. They released a list based on more than 4.6 million insurance applications. I was expecting to see Ford (Mustang), Chevy (Corvette), or the Dodge (Challenger or Charger.) Nope. Foreign cars dominate the list.
To find out the culprits of cars that get the most speeding tickets, Insurify went through their database of more than 4.6 million car insurance applicants.

The police stop more than 20 million Americans each year for traffic violations. With the average speeding ticket costing around $120, you better slow down or get a different car.
Here Are The Cars That Get The Most Speeding Tickets:
5. Mazda: 7.7%
According to Insurify, the Mazda model most likely to get a speeding ticket is the MX-5 Miata.
4. Subaru: 8.0%
Normally you don’t think of Subaru’s as speedster cars. The worst offender for this brand is the WRX, which was originally made for rally racing.
3. Volkswagen: 8.3%
The Golf GTI is responsible for most of Volkswagen’s divers’ citations. This car is described as a “speedy box-on-wheels”. It can go from 0 to 60 in 5.1 seconds, so no wonder why these cars are a top offender.
2. Scion: 8.4%
Even though Scion’s were discontinued in 2017, it’s still one of the worst speeding offenders. The model you’ll most likely see zooming through traffic is the Scion FR-S.
1. Infiniti: 8.7%
Known for it’s luxury, Infiniti owners also have a bad speeding habit. 8.7% of Infiniti drivers have had a speeding violation with the worst offender being the Infiniti G37.
These car brands are well above the national average of 7.1%. Insurify also breaks down specific models that are ticketed the most. The “worst offender” is the BMW i3, with 17.6% of its drivers having speeding citations on their records.
I was really surprised I didn’t see any Nissan cars on this list. Whenever there’s someone driving crazy on 275 or US-19, it’s usually a Nissan Altima. Other cars topping the list are the Audi S4 (14.6%), Scion FR-S (13.7%), Subaru WRX (13.6%), Hyundai Genesis Coupe and Kia Stinger (13.4%), Volkswagen Golf GTI (11.1%), Honda S2000 (10.8%) and Infiniti G37 (10.7%)
