NYC Speeding Ticket Points: What You Need to Know

Unfortunately, NYC speeding tickets can lead to severe consequences for drivers. They can add points to your driving record. If you are convicted of three (3) speeding tickets received within 18 months, your license will be revoked for a minimum of six months.

The speeding point system includes:

  • 3 points for driving 1 to 10 mph over the limit
  • 4 points for driving 11 to 20 mph over the limit
  • 6 points for driving 21 to 30 mph over the limit
  • 8 points for driving 31 to 40 mph over the limit
  • 11 points for driving over 40 mph above the limit

Understanding Penalties for Speeding in NYC

There are any number of reasons why people in New York City, and elsewhere, may drive in excess of the speed limit. While it may seem minor, speeding on New York roads can result in serious legal issues for motorists, regardless of the reasoning. There are a number of penalties that may be levied on drivers of non-commercial vehicles who are caught exceeding the speed limit, many of which far outweigh a simple slap on the wrist.

Speeding Fines in New York: What to Expect

Fines are a common consequence for motorists who are ticketed for speeding in New York. Generally, these fines are based on how fast a driver is going in relation to the posted speed limit. According to the SafeNY website, New York drivers may be:

  • Fined anywhere between $90 and $150 if they are caught traveling up to 10 mph over the posted speed limit
  • The fines increase to between $180 and $300 for those drivers who are going between 10 and 30 mph over the speed limit
  • For motorists who are caught driving in excess of 30 mph over the posted speed limit, the fines they may face can be between $360 and $600. 

Typically, the fines are doubled for NY drivers who are found to be speeding in work zones. In addition to fines, points may be added to your record.

    "Moving violation dismissed."
    Mr. Kron he made no guarantees and was honest with regards to the whole matter and never gave me a false sense of security as to what the final turn out would be.

    "He kept in touch to make sure my issue was completely resolved."
    Martin Kron was very patient, fair, and upfront during my interactions with him. I am currently out of the NY/NJ area, after a recent move. But needed someone to represent me for an issue with the DMV in NYS. He was realistic with timelines and was able to ultimately get my issue resolved before it affected my current state license. Can't thank him enough. After he resolved the issue in NYS, he kept in touch to make sure my issue was completely resolved in my new home state.

    "Would highly recommend, thank you again!"
    The NY DMV can be difficult to navigate, I am so glad that I called Martin A. Kron & Associates. Vanessa and the team resolved a difficult situation for my family in a matter of days.

    "Very professional and quick."
    I'm happy to say today my wife was able to finally get her new license plates for NJ after the NY suspension was completely wiped from her record. Amazing turnaround. I like their no-nonsense approach.

    "Martin is the perfect person for this job."

    As a former NYS Traffic Law Judge and having previously sat where the Judges before him now sit, Martin is the perfect person for this job. Besides a plethora of experience on and off the bench, he's kind and honest, he listens and is attentive to your concerns, is straightforward and most importantly, gives out reasonable expectations. He always returns phone calls in a timely manner and makes himself accessible even on weekends. And to top it off, he even has a sense of humor. Hope I never have to hire him again, but if the situation arises, he's my go-to guy!

    "BEST DEAL IN NYC!!!"
    Had tons of old traffic tickets in NYC. Mr. Kron got them reopened and thrown out. I got emails all the time telling what was going on but I never had to appear.

    "The best decision I made."

    I highly recommend Martin Kron & Associates. I had a great experience. A good friend recommended me to Marty last year when I received a speeding ticket in NYC. Marty knows the process extremely well, listened & answered all of my questions, and ultimately got my ticket dismissed. In addition, during the past 20 months, when I had questions regarding the adjournments and processes, all of the people in his office were extremely responsive, professional and great at answering all of my questions. Before getting the referral to Marty, I called a few other traffic law firms that I found online to possibly handle the ticket. They all sounded like ticket factories with no real service and no real people behind you. Having Marty or one of his attorneys representing you in NYC traffic court was the best decision I made and is 100% the right answer. I got a great result and felt that I had the A-team on my side. If you get a traffic ticket in NYC, I would call Martin Kron...

    "I was out of the court in 20 minutes."
    Marty is a professional, and a very caring person. Recently on my way to daughters graduation, I entered HOV lane at GW Bridge. On his advise I pleaded guilty but the points were waived. He met me at the court and we went before the judge right away and I was out of the court in 20 minutes.
