Replying to So i got a ticket, need some info

so im hanging in this little town called sag harbor which is part of the town of southampton. im driving down mainstreet around 10:30 at night and its really busy, the whole place is a big party and theres lots of traffic. I'm lookin for a spot which are at this point scarce and i see one on the other side of the street. with no cars coming in the opposite direction i shoot across the street and grab the spot. all is supposedly well and i go and hang around town with my girlfriend for about two hours. i come back and there's a ticket on my windshield from the town of southampton for 50 bucks because i crossed the double yellow.

what is the deal with this? I know i broke the law and deserve the ticket of course, but the issuing official didnt pull me over for a moving violation so therefore doesn't have my license, doesnt know who i am, or anything like that. I can mail in the 50 bucks and be done with it but will this go on my record and heres the big question, will my insurance go up? i cant afford to have my insurance go up its really expensive where i live right now as it is. so am i fucked or what? All i care about is the insurance thing. thanks to anybody with advice.
