HOV Lane Ticket Attorneys in New York
New York Carpool Lane Violations
In order to drive in the carpool lane, also referred to as the HOV lane, your vehicle needs to have a minimum of two (HOV–2) or three (HOV–3) people on board. HOV lanes can be found on many of New York City’s highways and bridges, including:
- Gowanus Expressway (HOV–3)
- Long Island Expressway (HOV–3)
- Manhattan Bridge (HOV–2)
- Queensboro Bridge (HOV–2)
- Staten Island Expressway (HOV–3)
If you are found to be driving in the carpool lane without the minimum number of occupants, you could face fines and various other penalties.

HOV Lane Ticket Points & Fines in NY
In the state of New York, anyone caught driving in the carpool lane without a passenger – which is typically cited as a “disobeying traffic control device” ticket (VTL § 1110(a)) – will receive two points on their DMV record and be required to pay a fine of more than $100.
It is also important to note that crossing into or out of the HOV lane at any area other than a designated entry point will result in additional violations, fees, and possible points. This is regardless of whether or not you have a passenger in the car.
Individuals who accumulate too many points on their records may have their driving privileges suspended or revoked, which is why you should discuss your options with an attorney at Gannes & Musico before paying the ticket.
