Delaware Drivers: Impact of New York Traffic Convictions

By Seth M. Azria, Esq.
The effect of New York Traffic Tickets on Delaware Drivers

1. Information Sharing Between NY and Delaware

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

Will I Get Points on My Delaware License?

Yes. Once notified, Delaware may record the conviction and assess points against your Delaware license according to Delaware’s point system.

2. Hidden New York DMV Fines

The Driver Responsibility Assessment

Even if you don't live in New York, the rules still apply to your driving privileges there. If the New York ticket carries 6 or more points, in addition to the court fine, the New York DMV will impose an additional fine called a Driver Responsibility Assessment.
