Ithaca Corning DWI lawyer: the TRUTH about New York Speeding Tickets and POINTS

The TRUTH about New York
Speeding Tickets
and POINTS



This video is about points from moving violations, like speeding. Most tickets have points associated with them but do they matter? The DMV, Department of Motor Vehicle puts these points on your driving record but will they affect car insurance? If I am licensed out of state will my state get these points?

Points don't count as much as most people think. Points in New York can cause a license suspension (11 points in 18 months), can trigger three years of DMV surcharges but they will not affect car insurance.

Points are different state to state.
Points are not always transferred the same state to state.
There is no nationally recognized point system for tickets.

Car insurance is affected by the nature and character of the offense.

If you have questions about a speeding ticket or another moving violation in Ithaca, Watkins Glen, Steuben County or the surrounding counties, give us a call, shoot us an email, or fill out the form on our website:
