if the ticket is in the 5 boroughs, they do not offer any such deals
answered on Feb 6, 2018
This is possible, but very likely if you are within the 5 boroughs of NYC. Usually tickets come up in that system within 15-45 days of the date on the ticket.
If your ticket was received outside NYC there is no online system to see your ticket. Once you mail in a Not Guilty plea the Court... View More 
I got the first ticket after 14 years of driving for disobeying a stop sign in NYC. I am sure I stopped and the officer lied to me by saying I get no points for this ticket so I pleaded not guilty and was assigned a court date in May. Yesterday I was ticketed for speeding again and I want to... View More

You can try to re-open the case by filing this form and saying you were lied to. https://dmv.ny.gov/forms/aa3.3.pdf
If you are denied, you can sue the DMV.

Hi,
You are correct. If you are not a cdl driver, then an out of state ticket, will not transfer to NY
Therefore, you can just plead guilty and pay the fine.

The speed limit change was fast in the area and I was not quick enough to slow down but I am always tentative of the limit

Can you fight a speeding ticket? Sure. Will you win? Depends on a lot of things. Not enough information in the question.
My NY license was suspended due to income tax issues (which I am contesting) and not due to any traffic violations. However, I was able to get a license from FL. Can I drive in NY using the FL license?
answered on Jan 30, 2018
Probably not, since your driving privileges are suspended in NY.

I got a ticket in March of 2017, but the court date isn't until March 2018. If I am found guilty (or change to a guilty plea to avoid going into court) will the points on my license be assessed as starting on March 2017 or March 2018?
answered on Jan 28, 2018
The 18 months start the day the ticket is issued, for suspension purposes. The ticket will still stay on your record for up to 4 years from the date of violation, for insurance purposes.
I do not have records of my payments but it shows on their end I made one payment and never paid the rest. I know I did. I even have had a few minor tickets in between these 13 years, been to court and was never told about this. Can they do this?
answered on Jan 25, 2018
You need to collect your receipts and contact the court where the ticket was filed.
I was convicted on three different years for three tickets violation that i got in 2014.First ticket violation on 2/14/2014 convicted 3/15/2014, 2nd violation on 4/03/14 convicted 5/20/2016, 3rd violation on 02/28/2014 convicted 1/25/2018 DMV.org says that points will be added when convicted. As of... View More

If you were convicted in the Traffic Violations Bureau (I am assuming based on the long delay) the ALJ does not have the ability to not add the points to your license if you are convicted, that is done automatically by the DMV computer. The ALJ does have discretion to not suspend you based on... View More
I had no tickets for years but got a speeding ticket in NC in August while on vacation (I live in NY). I wrote the DA and mailed in the ticket but never heard back. Apparently they never got my letter or ticket because they convicted me of the charge and "failure to appear." I chalked it... View More

Your questions were whether NC tickets will affect your NY driving record, and whether a NY Court will be able to see your NC conviction.
The answer to your first question is no. The NYS DMV will not record a traffic infraction conviction from NC on your NYS driving record.

I have tickets suspending my liscence some older than 5 to 10 years old and I wanna cleanup my liscence so I get my driving privileges returned
answered on Jan 23, 2018
Hi,
We have a lot of experience, cleaning up old tickets. Depending on the violation and the location of the court would determine the course of action.
If the ticket is in the 5 boroughs, then typically you can just go online and pay the fine.
However, outside of the 5... View More
I took a picture of the sign
The location of occurrence is also a little confusing. It said clearview expressway, but it also says northern blvd
answered on Jan 22, 2018
Location of occurrence is more important. Vehicle and registration info are not as relevant.
Was pulled over for speeding, mailed in the plea immediately. A month and half later still no ticket. Called the court house they said it would come within the week, that was two weeks ago. Is there a limit to how long they can take to give me the ticket?
answered on Jan 21, 2018
It sounds like you got a ticket from the police officer when you were stopped. You mailed a not guilty plea to the court. You haven't received a court date yet. If this isn't your question, please re-post with clarified facts.
If this is your question, the answer is that the Court... View More
Found me guilty without appearing in December. Sent notice of fine due. Failure to pay results in arrest warrant.???? True?
answered on Jan 19, 2018
Hi,
Yes they will issue a warrant if fine is not paid. However, if you are a NY driver, and received a ticket in NJ, you can just pay the fine, since the points do not transfer to NY.

Said was how fast were you going? I said 30 or 35 . He said no I clocked you at 40 ! Then asked me for my license and registration. I gave it to him and he asked me to step out the car ! I told him I didn’t feel comfortable stepping out of the vehicle for a moving violation! He then went back to... View More

Sounds like you have a misdemeanor for driving suspended, a violation of possession of marijuana and a couple of traffic tickets. You want an attorney: you do not want to handle it yourself.
I got pulled over in Florida, the cop said I was speeding and I was not speeding. I am a NY resident. I was not able to attend the court date so I submitted all supporting evidence and the judge still ruled guilty. They said I have to pay the fine or 25 hours of community service but I was not...

Sounds like you were already found guilty. Do you plan to appeal?
Find out if you can do community service at legal aid and get your probono hours done at the same time.
I also immediately renewed my registration, while the officer was writing the ticket. Is this error in dates enough to get the ticket dismissed?
answered on Jan 16, 2018
Not enough information. Was the date of the ticket before or after 10/2017? If the date of the ticket was after, I can't see why the difference between 2015 and 2017 would matter.
Your second argument is more interesting. If your registration shows that you renewed on the same day as... View More
Got pulled over for speeding doing 16 MPH over. Wanted me to plea guilty by Oct 23. I never plead. Received a letter in mail saying I owe X amount of dollars for ticket. I called to pay ticket I live in FL and got pulled over in NY by the way. They are saying regardless if I am out of state... View More

Mandatory appearance for a 16 MPH speed? Doesn't sound right. Show your ticket to an attorney.
