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).

Taconic Parkway Speeding Ticket

Seth was able to reduce my 6 point speeding ticket to 0 points with a small fine. His office was responsive and kept me up to date. I did not have to appear in court, they pretty much took care of everything.

Exceeded every expectation!!!!

I hired Azria and Bruffet to help with a hefty speeding ticket I received in Cortlandville NY. I'll admit I was hesitant as it was my first time hiring someone to handle a ticket for me but I was at risk of losing my license and paying thousands in fines. I was shocked to find they greatly exceeded expectations, taking my 4+ point ticket down to a 0 point violation with miniscule fines. Also the process was simple and fast, I sent them my information and was required to do nothing else from the start to the closure of my case. I cannot thank them enough and would/do recommend them to anyone in need of help with a ticket!

Highly recommended

Mr. Azria did a great job handled my speeding ticket! All it took was a quick telephone call and he took care of everything. He got my charge (and fine) reduced and I did not have to appear in court. Everything was handled via telephone & email.

Mr. Azria was great to deal with and he did exactly what he promised for a very reasonable fee. I hope I don't need him again, but I strongly recommend him.
