did a quick search, found nothing…if i missed it, so sory
but, i remember way back when that only points accrued on your license in NY go onto your license. but with the internet and data transferring so much better now, i wonder if its any different.
basically curious if i should just pay the fine on a ticket i got in PA or if i should fight it to avoid points.
advice? fwiw, lawyer cost is minimal, so don’t figure on that being “worth it”
If I get a ticket for a moving violation in another state, do I receive points on my NYS driver license?
The NYSDMV does not record out-of-state violations committed by NYS drivers in other jurisdictions. The exceptions are alcohol-related violations, drug-related violations, and moving violations committed in Quebec or Ontario. Under special agreements, traffic convictions in Quebec or Ontario are recorded on NYS driver license records and carry points. Except for violations in Ontario and Quebec, points are not added to your NYS record for out-of-state violations.
If you do not respond to a ticket or fail to pay a fine for a moving violation that you committed in any state except Alaska, California, Michigan, Montana, Oregon or Wisconsin, the DMV suspends your NYS driver license until you respond to the ticket or pay the fine. If a driver from a state except these six states fails to respond to a traffic ticket issued in NYS, their driver license will be suspended until the driver responds to the traffic ticket in NYS.
Drivers from other states must contact the DMV in their home state to get information about the effect of a traffic violation conviction that occurs in NYS.
If you receive a conviction for an alcohol-related or drug-related driving violation in any state, your NYS driver license is revoked for at least six months.
:tup: I realized I’ve been doing rallies and never bothered to make sure points dont transfer. Granted, somehow I’ve made it without tickets over 7000 miles of driving like a complete jackass with a pack of high end cars.
