Nobody likes getting a traffic ticket--they're expensive, can cause your Michigan auto insurance rates to increase. But according to a new study, a ticket could save your life.
 
Research published in The Lancet, a medical journal, has found that drivers are more conscientious after being ticketed, at least for a while.
 
Researchers found that for a few weeks after receiving a traffic ticket, a driver's chances of being killed in an automobile accident fall by 35 %. 
 
After three or four months, though, the impact wears off and drivers continue to break the speed limit around town.
