How much does a speeding ticket cost in New York?

A speeding ticket in New York has three costs if you plead guilty. The court sets a fine. The state adds a surcharge. The DMV adds points, and 6 or more points bring a separate fee.

The fine. The judge picks a fine within the range the law sets for your speed (VTL 1180).

The surcharge. This is an extra state fee added on top of the fine. It is $93 in town and village courts and $88 in other courts (VTL 1809).

The points and the DRA fee. The Driver Responsibility Assessment (DRA) is a separate fee you pay to the DMV over 3 years. You owe it if you get 6 or more points in 18 months. It is $300 for 6 points, plus $75 for each point over 6.

*Unless points from other tickets bring you to 6 or more within 18 months.
How far over the limit	Points	Fine	DRA fee	Total with surcharge
1–10 mph	3	$45–$150	None*	$133–$243
11–20 mph	4	$90–$300	None*	$178–$393
21–30 mph	6	$90–$300	$300	$478–$693
31–40 mph	8	$180–$600	$450	$718–$1,143
41+ mph	11	$180–$600	$675	$943–$1,368

Your insurance company can also raise your rates. The DMV says insurers use their own point systems, so that cost is not in these totals.

Why one mile per hour can cost you $300 more

The cost does not rise smoothly. It jumps at each step. Here is what that looks like in a 55 mph zone:

Ticket	Points	Total if you plead guilty
65 in a 55	3	$133–$243
66 in a 55	4	$178–$393
75 in a 55	4	$178–$393
76 in a 55	6	$478–$693
85 in a 55	6	$478–$693
86 in a 55	8	$718–$1,143
95 in a 55	8	$718–$1,143
96 in a 55	11	$943–$1,368

Going from 75 to 76 in a 55 adds 2 points and a $300 DRA fee. At 96, the 11 points alone can be enough for the DMV to suspend your license. That's why the speed written on your ticket matters so much.

Find your exact ticket

Pick the speed limit on your ticket, then find your speed. A dark line in the table marks each jump in points.

Do I have to accept the speed on my ticket?

No. The speed on your ticket is what the officer says you were going. It is not proof. You are presumed innocent, and the state still has to prove its case.

Maybe you know you were going a little fast. That doesn't mean you have to accept every point and penalty on the ticket. Everyone has the right to make the state prove its case, and a lawyer can often work toward a lower charge.

Does it matter which court my ticket is in?

Yes. What a lawyer can do depends on where your ticket was written.

Outside New York City. Most tickets go to a local town, village, or city court. In these courts, the prosecutor may offer a deal to plead to a lesser charge. That could mean a lower speed or a ticket with fewer points. Even a small change can move you into a lower step on the tables above.

Inside New York City. Tickets written in the five boroughs go to the DMV's Traffic Violations Bureau (TVB). The TVB does not allow plea deals. Your case is decided at a hearing, so the question is whether the evidence holds up.

Before you pay this ticket, call us at 888-883-5529.

How can a lawyer fight a speeding ticket in New York?

In my experience, the strongest questions are about how the officer measured your speed. Here are two cases New York courts still rely on.

Was the radar or laser tested?

In People v. Dusing, 5 N.Y.2d 126, New York's highest court looked at speed readings from radar and speedometers. The court said a reading from an untested device can be used in court. But on its own, it is not enough to convict. This means the officer may need to show the device was tested and working. If the records are missing, I can challenge the reading.

Was the speed only an estimate?

In People v. Olsen, 22 N.Y.2d 230, the same court held that a trained officer's visual estimate of speed can be enough to convict. The court also noted that an estimate may not be enough when the speed is only a little over the limit. If your ticket is based on an estimate and the gap is small, that can matter.

I also look at the paperwork. In local courts, you can ask for a supporting deposition. That is a written, sworn statement from the officer that explains the charge. Mistakes or missing details may help your case. A defense that worked in one case does not mean it will work in yours, so every ticket needs its own review.

For more, see ten arguments used to fight a New York speeding ticket.

What if I have a CDL, a junior license, or an out-of-state license?

CDL drivers. Under federal rules, speeding 15 mph or more over the limit is a "serious traffic violation." That counts even in your personal car. Two of them in 3 years can take your CDL away for 60 days. So 70 in a 55 is not a small ticket if you drive for work. See CDL traffic tickets.

Junior licenses. Speeding with a junior or probationary license has its own rules and can lead to a suspension. See speeding with a junior license.

Out-of-state drivers. New York tickets can still affect your home-state record and insurance. See out-of-state drivers with NY tickets.

A second or third ticket. Fines go up for repeat speeding tickets within 18 months. Three speeding tickets in 18 months can lead to losing your license. See second or third speeding ticket.

Work zones and school zones. Speeding in a work zone is 8 points no matter how fast you were going, and fines are higher in both zones. See work zone tickets and school zone tickets.

What should I do next?

Don't pay yet. If you plead guilty and pay, you are convicted, and the points go on your record.
Find your response date. It's on the ticket. You usually have a limited time to respond, so don't wait.
Note the court. Check whether it's a local court or the NYC TVB.
Check your points. Look up your record in MyDMV to see what else is still counting.

Common questions

How many points is 80 in a 55 in NY?

80 in a 55 is 25 mph over, which is 6 points. The fine is $90 to $300, plus the state surcharge. Because it's 6 points, you'd also owe a $300 DRA fee. The total is about $478 to $693 if you plead guilty.

How many points is 70 in a 55 in NY?

70 in a 55 is 15 mph over, which is 4 points. The total is about $178 to $393 with the surcharge. If you have a CDL, 15 over counts as a serious traffic violation under federal rules.

Will 90 in a 55 suspend my license in NY?

Not by itself. 90 in a 55 is 35 mph over, which is 8 points and a $450 DRA fee. But the DMV can suspend your license at 11 points in 24 months. One more ticket of 3 or more points in that time could put you there.

What happens if I get 100 in a 55 in NY?

100 in a 55 is 45 mph over, which is 11 points. That alone can be enough for the DMV to suspend your license. You'd also owe a $675 DRA fee on top of the fine and surcharge.

Do these totals include insurance?

No. Your insurance company can raise your rates based on your record. The DMV says insurers use their own point systems, so ask your insurer how a conviction would affect you.

Do speed camera tickets add points in NY?

No. A camera ticket goes to the vehicle's owner, not a driver. It does not add points to your license.
