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.

Unfortunately I'm a repeat customer.... Fantastic, great results for me.... I've dealt with other lawyers and it's just night and day.... Hopefully I'll never need them again but if I do I'll definitely call

My family has consulted with Seth Azria and his team several times over the years and I cannot say enough good things about this firm. They are prompt, courteous and extremely proficient in NYS Traffic Law and I would not hesitate to contact them again should the need arise.
This firm truly cares about the individual and I'm sure I could not find a better legal team anywhere. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!
