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. If you are facing serious penalties, consider consulting with our criminal traffic violations attorney for guidance.

This was my first time hiring an attorney for a ticket. I had a ticket for speeding in a school zone and was in jeopardy of having my license suspended. Martin was honest, clear and available. He just communicated with me and shared I was found not guilty!!! So grateful and thankful for Martin and his team!Satisfied Client

My son and I consulted with Martin for a traffic violation that was received in the Bronx in 2016. His knowledge reduced my son's fine considerably as well as helped him shed points in an efficient manner. We would recommend him for hire.Paul

I experienced a very difficult situation between the states of New York as well as New Jersey where I was potentially facing a 6-month suspension of my license. Aside from the fact that I live 6 hours from New Jersey, I was in dire need of professional expertise to ensure that my situation was handled as well as possible. I spoke with a number of attorney's and decided to hire Martin; and will never deal with another attorney again. Martin was extremely friendly, offered great advice and support and ultimately helped me to have all of the charges thrown out with my case being dropped.
As we all know, no one can promise or guarantee the same outcome. However, if you want the best chance to receive the best possible outcome, Martin Kron and his team are your only option.

Marty met me 15 minutes before court was due to start exactly as we agreed. He spoke to the prosecutor and as indicated in the title, cut the points on my two tickets from 8 to 2, reduced my fines by a third, and we were out of court in 45 minutes. Had they started on time it would have been only 30 minutes instead of the hours it might have been with all the people that showed up. We were up first and out first. I bet he was there quite a bit earlier than I was to accomplish this feat.Jeff

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.Satisfied Client

I Hired Martin to help resolve 2 tickets I received for improper use of a cellphone. Martin listened to my story and was very honest and said I would lose the case unless I could prove it was a dire emergency. Martin explained how the process worked and that there was no ability to plea the tickets down. He explained points of law and how his firm would represent me in the cases. He did this during a Sunday morning while with his family. I was very impressed with his dedication to my cases. He didn't have to talk to me on his weekend but he did. Very classy.
By the way, he won the first case for me! Second is pending. But regardless of the outcome, I know he is working hard to represent my case properly. Thanks for everything
