Alabama Drivers: Effect of New York Traffic Ticket Convictions

by Seth Azria on 5/07/2020

Syracuse, NY Traffic Lawyer effect of traffic tickets on Alabama drivers


Alabama  Adds New York convictions to Alabama Records 

If the Alabama DMV receives a New York conviction it will: 1) add it to their licensee’s record, and 2) keep the record for 3 years from the conviction date. 

Alabama and New York are both members of the driver license compact and so the states share information about traffic convictions.  So it seems likely, Alabamans convicted in NeW York will have consequences at home. 

It is also important to consider:  

  1. All drivers, regardless of the state that issued their license, who are ticketed in New York are subject to New York’s driver responsibility law that requires payment from any driver who accrues 6 or more points in any 18 month period. One speeding ticket 21mph over the limit is 6 points. And, 
  2. It is likely a Missouri insurance carrier will learn of the conviction and might raise premiums or drop coverage.

One speeding conviction may cause premiums to increase over $2,000 in three years. The Zebra.

Extremely satisfied

I have hired the Azria law firm twice to represent my daughter, once for speeding and the other was an accident. Both times I was extremely pleased with the outcome, in both cases they were dropped to no pointers. Everything was handled through e-mail, which was very convenient and in both cases were taken care of from start to finish within a month. I would recomend them to anyone. Thank you again for all of your help.

Speeding ticket reduced to 0 points

Mr. Bruffett took care of my ticket -- reducing a 4 point ticket to 0 points (with reduced fines, as well). He and his staff were pleasant to work with and I highly recommend them.

Professional and reliable, highly recommended

After receiving a ticket upstate NY, I contacted Seth's firm based on the great reviews on this board and was really happy that I made this choice.

Seth explained the possible outcome in my case when I first called him and managed to achieve exactly what he told me, which shows that he is experienced and knowledgeable in his area of practice. He successfully negotiated with a DA a reduction of charges from a 6 point speeding to a non-speeding violation without me having to appear in court in person.

Monica, Seth's paralegal, kept me informed of all necessary details throughout the whole two month process and I received a response to every email that I sent to the firm.

I would highly recommend Seth's firm for anyone looking for reliable and professional attorney services.
