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.

Happy with the Service

I was coming back home (Canada) when I got pulled over for doing 81 in 65 zone. I had no clue as in what to do. If I would've just simply paid the fine I would've lost 3 points in Canada on my license. So I googled lawyer and Seth's name came up. Contacted him and he advised me how he will pursue this ticket and what would be the likely outcome of it. What he said come out to be exactly that. VERY HAPPY WITH THE RESULT. I WILL RECOMMEND HIM.

Making this short and simple: I had over 15 traffic infractions/violations for driving without a license, speeding and among other serious infractions. Needless to say , Ralph took care of this all for me and I ended up just paying fines for the traffic tickets - Also , I'm a licensed driver now! 

Thanks a lot Ralph for your service , I would recommend anyone who gets in trouble with the law to first contact Ralph Habib.

I’d like to thank you very much. I was very worried about my traffic ticket because I am a cdl truck driver. Any ticket is really dangerous for me because I shouldn't have any points. But Mr. Azria solved all these issues. I am very happy to get this perfect result. 0 points! My best wishes to you. Thanks again.
