Yes , All moving violations can cause an increase in your premiums.
"If you only have a driver's permit and are ticketed for not wearing a seatbelt in someone else's car will your insurance be raised?" It depends on how your state treats seat belt violations. In most states they are not entered on your record so they will have no effect on your insurance. In other states they are entered and may cause a slight insurance increase but it will be negligble compared to a speeding ticket. lwpat http://www.speedingticketcentral.com
No--it's a minor offense with a $25 fine. They're not interested in ruining your life, they just want your to wear the gosh-darn seatbelt! Of course, it is a violation. While in most places it will not create points against your license, it may cause your insurance to increase, as it increases the risk of death and injury in an accident.
Whether or not insurance rates are affected by seat belt violations depends on several factors. Moving violations can cause danger to people and property and are usually the ones that will change an insurance rate. the qualifications for a charge are the ticket has to hit the motor vehicle record. The state the violation occurred in must permit insurance companies in the state to charge for the violation. The insurance company has to consider the violation a risk.
None, Just getting a moving violation will cause your insurance to go up. I recommend you this site where you can compare quotes from different companies: mycheapinsurance.net
You can't be sure with all companies...but most would not increase your premium unless it is a moving violation. However, expired registration violation, parking ticket violations, and other non-moving violation may lead to license suspension. Now, that is a complete different story. Such suspension may cause your insurance company to non-renew your policy.

If you were pulled over for a traffic violation that IS 'just' cause.

Contact your agent or policy services dept to find out for sure, companies and states vary on what they consider a 'chargable' offense.
Actually it is illegal in all states except for adults in New Hampshire. The big question is whether the officers can stop you for simply not wearing a seatbelt. About half of the states with seatbelt laws have primary offense rule, one in which an officer can stop you if he sees that you are not wearing a seatbelt. Other states mandate that another offense must've been committed for the officer to stop you, in which event to give you a ticket for not wearing a seatbelt. In either case, failure to wear a seatbelt is not a moving violation. If a person has a disability which prevents them from wearing a seat belt, they can get an exemption which allows them to not have to wear a seat belt. Police officers should not stop people who are not wearing a seat belt because they don't know whether the person is breaking the law or not. Seat belt stops are unlawful and cause violations of constitutional rights.
How much is what? If you cause an accident, you will need to pay for the damages. If you are cited in a traffic violation, you will need to pay that separately. If you use insurance to pay the damages, your premium will probably raise.
