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.

Mr. Azria got my traffic case dismissed, I highly recommend him to anyone in the area in and around Syracuse.
I would definitely recommend Azria & Bruffett Law Firm. They were extremely helpful with my case and made me feel at ease. I am extremely happy with the work they put into my case and the amount of professionalism that I received.
Very nice guy helpful
Seth Azria and his team are great. He helped me reduce my 6 points speeding ticket to a no points, loud muffler violation. I highly recommend him.
