Arizona Drivers: Impact of New York Traffic Convictions

by Seth Azria on 3/20/2020
Effect of NY traffic ticket convictions on Arizona Drivers

Arizona DOT Includes NYS Traffic Convictions

Arizona and New York have both signed the Driver License Compact so the states share information about traffic convictions. 

If an Arizona driver is convicted of a traffic violation in a New York court, Arizona DOT will add the conviction to that driver’s record. 

Arizonans Should Take Care of Tickets issued in NY

Three reasons Arizona drivers should not plead guilty to a New York Traffic ticket: 

  1. Arizona will add the conviction, and any points, to their record back home. 
  2. All drivers on New York roads are subject to New York’s driver responsibility law. The law 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. 
  3. The states share information and Arizona will add convictions to the drivers record, therefore, it is likely an Arizona insurance carrier will learn of the conviction and possibly respond negatively.

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.

Mr. Azria is a thorough professional that explained me the complete process up to the dismissal of my case. Shannon in the office is a true gem. The entire process was handled with complete and clear explanation in each email. Highly recommend them for your traffic issues.

Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness

I was stopped by a NY state trooper for speeding on my way back to Canada right before the border crossing on I-81 in Mar. 2020. (Please be mindful about the signs of reducing speed. I didn't slow down quick enough). It was the first time I was stopped by a cop and I had no idea what I should do about this ticket. I searched on Google and decided to contact Mr. Azria. He was very nice to talk to and clarified all the questions I had regarding the ticket. In the end I did the online traffic safety training by Jefferson County. Mr. Azria helped me organize my correspondence with the DA and the court all the way through. I was quite fortunate to find him to fight the ticket for me. He and his assistant was very professional and knowledgeable. My charge was reduced to "failed to signal" and 2 points deduction. I appreciate the advice and help from Mr. Azria.

Do not hesitate to hire him!

Me and a friend got in legal trouble in a town about 4 hours away from where we live. The charge was very threatening, and we expected to be dealing with it for months with little hope that it would go in our favor. We ended up having all of the charges dropped in the first appearance within about 40 minutes. Words cannot describe how much weight has been lifted off of our shoulders at a very modest price. Forever grateful for spending the time to research and find this excellent lawyer!
