Flashing High Beams OK, Leaving Them On is Not

by Seth Azria on 12/27/2023

Failure to dim headlights is a 2 -point offense with a maximum fine of $150 plus a $93 surcharge. If you were charged with this violation, a critical fact will be if you flashed the high beams or left them on for oncoming traffic.

Just flashing high beam headlights, alone, is not a violation of the law requiring dimming of headlights to prevent dazzling light from interfering with oncoming motorists. Vehicle and Traffic Law ยง 375(3), People v. Rose, 67 A.D.3d 1447 (4th Dep't 2009).

Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value

Excellent working with Seth...Seth assisted us with navigating the court system in NY state. The speeding ticket had no information and the city's documentation was too complicated and obscure for us to comprehend. Our case was concluded very much to our satisfaction. I highly recommend Seth to anyone who receives a speeding ticket in NY.

David Bruffett got our traffic ticket dismissed, he was upfront and honest about the process, and he was prompt in returning my call - what more can you ask for? :)

If you are considering this firm to represent you I 100% recommend. Mr. Azria represented me in the case of a speeding ticket, he handled everything very professionally and quickly, and kept me updated in each step of the process.

Seth Azria helped me and he can help you!

Seth provided me with everything necessary to reduce my ticket and worked with me through every little detail. He kept me up to date on each exchange that happened between the court and my case. He reduced it to it's lowest amount and charged me very little for doing so and appearing in court on my behalf. I would highly recommend him to anyone in the area. Thanks again Seth.
