Montana Drivers: Effect of New York Traffic Ticket Convictions

by Seth Azria on 2/16/2023

If you receive a traffic conviction in New York State, Montana will be notified of the offense as both states are members of the Driver License Compact.

Montana will add a New York traffic conviction to Montana driver’s record. Therefore, it is wise to treat a New York ticket as if it was issued in Montana.

If you are a Montana driver and want to obtain a copy of your driving record, you may do so here.

Insurance Premium Increases
Most importantly, it is likely your insurance company will learn of your New York conviction and may increase your premiums or drop coverage. It remains important to mitigate the charge as much as possible.

Minimize the Effect of All Traffic Tickets
Our goal at Azria & Bruffett is to minimize the effect of your New York traffic ticket both in New York and in your home state. One important point to keep in mind is that even if you are licensed in Montana, the New York State DMV will still fine you if you accumulate 6 points in any 18-month period - these fines are called a “Driver Responsibility Assessments.”

I am very pleased with Azria & Bruffet's services. Thanks to them I will not have to suffer from skyrocketing insurance rates due to a speeding ticket being put on my record. They kept me updated thoroughly every step of the way and made the entire process of getting my ticket reduced to a lesser charge very easy. They were also quick to respond to any questions I had throughout the process with a great deal of professionalism. I would not hesitate to deal with them in the future. Thank you Azria & Bruffet!!

I live just shy of NYC and got a traffic ticket in this law firms jurisdiction while upstate for a wedding. Traveling several hours north to attend traffic court wasn't something that was possible for me with my hectic work schedule in healthcare. Azria & Bruffett handled my case without me ever having to be physically present and were able to drop my ticket to a small fine with zero points on my liscence. Money well spent.

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!

Can't say enough good things about Seth Azaria and his firm. I called around to several different law offices for a consult on my ticket and Seth was the best price hands down. Not only was it a good value but the legal service was top notch. Seth was able to get my 4pt ticket down to 0 points and the fine down to 25% of what it originally was. Great communication from the office all the way through the process. Would go back to Seth 10/10 times
