Ticket Violations in New York
Some of the common traffic violations in New York include the following:
- Speeding
- Failure to Stop for School Bus
- Following Too Closely
- Unsafe Lane Change
- Red Light
- Failure to Obey Stop Sign
- Failure to Yield Right of Way
- Child Restraint Violation
- Leaving the Scene of an Accident
- Mobile Phone Violation
- Use of Portable Electronic Device
- Failure to Yield to an Emergency Vehicle
Each offense carries points that accumulate on record over time, and remain there for a year and a half. Having 11 points immediately sets the suspension process in motion.
If you have been pulled over, given a traffic ticket, and did not do anything to fight it, the consequences may include:
- Substantial fines including $100 annual assessment for a six points infraction and $25 for every succeeding point)
- incarceration
- License suspension (when you have 11 points over 18 months or when you have three speeding convictions over 18 months)
- Higher insurance premiums
Fighting Traffic Tickets
But just because an officer pulled you over and issued you a ticket does not necessarily mean you are guilty as charged. You can fight the tickets, reduce, or completely eliminate the penalties.
As a former prosecutor, I know the most appropriate defenses to use in court. I will work tirelessly to get the charges dropped, or at least reduced.
