Florida Drivers: Impact of New York Traffic Convictions

by Seth Azria on 5/11/2015

Points in Florida if Florida Gives Points for the NY Conviction

A Florida driver will receive points on their Florida record  from a ticket in New York, if Florida assesses points for that violation.

For example, a Florida driver received a ticket in New York for speeding 86 in a 65 zone. New York would assess 6 points for that conviction and Florida would assess 4 points. As a result the Florida driver would get 4 points on their Florida record.  For a speeding violation more than 15 miles over the limit, Florida will assess 3 points.

Florida Suspensions and Points

A Florida driver license will be suspended if a driver accumulates:

  • 12 points in 12 month period; 30 day Suspension
  • 18 points in 18 month period; 3 Month Suspension
  • 24 points in 36 month period; 1 Year Suspension

For more information and a list of points associated with Florida convictions please see: Official Florida DMV | Driver License Points and Point Suspensions. If you are Florida driver and want to a copy of your driving record you may purchase one here: http://www.flhsmv.gov/ddl/abstract.html

Mr. Azria - high professionalism

I received a speeding ticket doing 80 in a 65 mph zone. I contacted his office, the process was very quick. All contact was by email and very professional. They told you exactly what was going to happen. He got my ticket down to parking on pavement. No points!!! Minimal fine. His fee was very fair, compared to others. I would definitely recommend this firm...
