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.

Excellent experience with this law firm from Syracuse. Mr. Seth Azria Esq. handled my speeding ticket in Watertown, NY with no problem for a reasonable $ 250 fee and saved me a plethora of points and high insurance rates. It was difficult to be a tourist with an out of state license plate on a rental car and not being familiar with local speed traps of 30 mph.... I would use the Azria & Bruffett Law Firm again in a minute if I ever get another ticket in NY. It is especially handy that they will take credit cards over the phone or online. Some firms I checked with required cash and I had already left the state.

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!

I was entirely satisfied with the representation I received from Azria and Bruffett. In May 2018, I received two tickets for failing to stop adequately at a stop sign (the officer said it was a "rolling stop") and failure to signal more than 100 ft. before a turn. I had never had a moving violation in 20+ years of driving, and I was now suddenly facing 5 points and the possibility of a hefty fine! Azria and Bruffett were able to get the charges reduced to a non-moving violation with no points and a minimal fine. Based on my experience, I would recommend them to someone who is concerned about avoiding points and black marks on their driving record.

Mr. Azria was great on all accounts. Responsive, professional, and successful in court. Highly recommended.
