Some prosecutors, when offering a reduction to a driver under 25 years of age, will make the deal contingent on the driver taking the alive at 25 course. These courses are designed for younger drivers, take 4 hours to complete, are given in a classroom setting, and cost $60. Check out Alive at 25 Courses.
Currently, the classes are scheduled in Onondaga, Montgomery, and Rensselaer counties.
The courses associated with this program are the usual DMV approved "defensive driving classes." These classes are online, or in classroom, take a little over 5 hours, and cost about $30-40.
Once complete, New York drivers get 10% off on their insurance premiums and their point total is effectively reduced by 4. Note that the points do not go away, they are ignored for suspension purposes. Learn how it works and see a class list.
One speeding conviction may cause premiums to increase over $2,000 in three years. The Zebra.

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? :)
I'm so glad I hired Mr. Azria and his team to address a traffic ticket. I live in Queens and could not travel upstate. Mr.Azria and his team communicated with me every step of the way and gained my trust.Highly recommend!!
I am very please with Seth Azria services and I would definitive recommend them.
They were able to reduce 11 points down to nothing and I didn’t have to pay as much as I thought. I would definitely recommend them, as well as utilize their services again.
