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

Seth and his team have always been my go to. Between his professional and prompt attitude and his ability to handle most cases via email or remotely without my presence. I couldn’t recommend anything better in terms of legal service.

I recently had Mr. Azria represent me, and I'm beyond impressed. Their legal expertise, clear communication, and compassionate approach set them apart. From start to finish, Mr. Azria demonstrated a deep understanding of my case, kept me informed, and achieved an outcome that exceeded my expectations. Highly recommend for anyone in need of a top-tier lawyer. Thank you, Mr. Azria, for your outstanding service!

Speeding Violation Reduced

I incurred a speeding ticket in Syracuse while taking my nephews to Lacrosse Camp. I am from out of town and unknowingly went through a speed trap. I contacted Azria Law Firm once I returned home. They were extremely professional, courteous and prompt with all information, explanations of the legal procedure and with answers to all of my questions. It has been just over 30 days and my violation and fine have been reduced. I am very pleased and recommend the firm highly. They are reasonably priced and successfully resolved my case. In my profession, I work with lawyers all the time. I wish they were all as communicative and diligent as Seth and his staff.

Super efficient process with outstanding results. I received regular updates via email with clear instructions and expectations. Best of all, the results exceeded expectations - great reduction in my fine for speeding with zero points.

Thanks Seth and Team - you are great!
