Moving Violations in NYC

New York City Moving Violations Lawyer

If you have been cited for a moving violation in the New York City area, you may not want to simply pay the fine listed on your ticket and forget about it. Paying your ticket is an automatic conviction of the offense you were cited for which can add points to your driving record with the DMV.

When too many points accumulate, you are in danger of having your license suspended. With additional points, you may also face significant increases in your auto insurance premiums or even lose your insurance coverage altogether. How to handle this?

What Is a Moving Violation in NY?

In New York, a moving violation is any traffic offense committed while your vehicle is in motion. Moving violations include seatbelt violations, failing to yield, illegal turns, following too closely, failing to stop for a school bus and using a cell phone while driving.

Moving violations include all of the above examples, as well as driving a vehicle with inadequate brakes or other unsafe equipment, leaving the scene of an accident without identifying yourself, railroad crossing violations, improper passing, unsafe lane changes, driving in the wrong direction, safety restraint violations for children, driving without insurance, driving without a license, or driving with a suspended or revoked license. Many of these violations add points to your record.
