Points on your license will result in fines and can result in an increase in your insurance premiums and the possible suspension or revocation of your driver’s license. A loss of license can mean you lose your job. Worse yet, are high-speed tickets which will cause higher point totals and higher insurance premiums.

What is a high-speed ticket?
The New York Department of Motor Vehicles has a point system for motor vehicle violations.
Here is how New York assigns you points for speeding violations:
- 1-10 miles per hour (mph) over the speed limit – 3 points
- 11-20 mph over the speed limit – 4 points
- 21-30 mph over the speed limit – 6 points
- 31-40 mph over the speed limit – 8 points
- Over 40 mph over the speed limit – 11 points
11 points in an 18 month period – If you accrue a total of 11 points during an 18-month period, your license will also be suspended and a Driver Assessment Fee will apply.
