North Carolina Drivers: Impact of New York Traffic Convictions

by Seth Azria on 3/20/2020

North Carolina Typically Treats New York Tickets as If they Happened in NC

New York and North Carolina both signed the Driver License Compact and therefore share traffic ticket conviction information. When North Carolina receives conviction information from New York, it will generally record it as if the violation occurred in North Carolina.  Therefore, traffic convictions in New York can cause a suspended license in North Carolina.

North Carolina Suspension Rules

  • North Carolina will suspend a license for 60 days for accumulating 12 points in 3 years, speeding over 55 mph is 3 points. 
  • Two convictions of speeding 55mph over the limit within one year  will cause a 30 day suspension. 
  • Or one conviction for speeding over 75mph, in some cases, may cause a suspension. 

Call a NY Traffic Ticket Lawyer

North Carolina’s rules with respect to speeding are quite strict and NC drivers ticketed in New York should take care to seek the largest reduction possible. Illegal parking and illegal muffler are two violations that North Carolina does not assess points. These two violations are also quite popular as reductions among prosecutors in New York.  

Please call us at (315) 364-1155 for a complementary case evaluation to see if your ticket might be reduced to no points or dismissed.

As mentioned in many of the other reviews. Seth and Monica spelled out what should happen and it did. Ticket for my daughter from our of state was reduced to nonmoving violation. She was visiting colleges in NY, as she only has her permit a moving violation would have resulted in, a loss of her license for 3 months, driving school, and fines etc... 
I had no referral, just read the reviews and crossed my fingers. The price was affordable, they were very responsive, I could not be happier. Wished I had used him a couple of years ago when I got a ticket in NYC that I made the very expensive mistake of trying to defend myself...

The office handled my speeding case effectively and obtained an outcome that did not put any points on my license. I would recommend this firm to anyone with a similar case.

They are just great. My case was taken care professionally from the beginning to the end.

Yelp Review

As a a 60 year old physician I am semi-retired and my wife and I travel the country to do work in my specialty at places that are shorthanded. Since I only work about 1/3 of the year we have time to drive to these places. Recently I was stopped on a highway in NY. I haven't had a speeding ticket since I was in my twenties. The officer said I was doing 81 in a 65 MPH zone (my reading 76 while trying to pass a slow moving vehicle with a line of cars behind me trying to get by me as well). I read the reviews and chose Attorney Azria.

The office staff was pleasant and efficient, and put me right through to Attorney Azria. He explained the process with perfect clarity and went to work. Although he explained the process could take 4-6 weeks he resolved the issue in 10 days, reducing the violation to a non-moving violation with a small fee and no points. His price was more than fair.

I've been lucky enough as a physician to have never been sued but doctors by nature do not have an affinity for lawyers. However, if you find yourself in need of one, it is hard to imagine someone better at their job than Attorney Azria. Thank you sir. If I could give you 6 stars out of 5 I would.
