No, the NYS DMV does not assign points for out of state traffic violations. Your insurance company can assign points that affect your cost of insurance for any traffic infraction if they want to.

Yea, I got one 3 years ago. PA SP gave me a ticket for doing 95 in a 65 area on US 80. No points if you paid within 7 days according to the PA SP. So I sent a check as soon as I found the next rest stop.
What kills me is that the ticket was for 75 dollars but all the other charges and forced donations to the 911 system, yada yada yada bumped my ticket to 190. WTF. On the return trip. I stopped by a best buy and bought a radar detector. 0 Ticket. I learned my lesson, don't drive without a radar detector.

Sterling--I've much the same story as you. My radar detector crapped out on me and I've been procrastinating sending it in for repairs.
The cop got me doing somewhere in the high-80s in a 65, but dropped it to 71 for me. The $125 I can handle, it's the insurance surcharge that worries me. So long as NYS doesn't find out about the ticket I doubt the insurance company will, either. |

The interstate compact does not provide for the assignment of "points" between the member compact states in the U.S. If you don't appear for a moving violation in PA, NYS DMV will suspend your NY DL. If you were to be convicted of an alcohol/drug out-of-state related driving offense and your driving privileges were suspended in the other state then the NYS DMV would also suspend your NY DL.

www.nydmv.state.ny.us/license.htm#points]Link to Some Info FYI, insurance company surchages appear even where the are no points issued to your NY license. Sterling18, you were lied to by the SP, they wanted you to pay your ticket without contesting it. There never would have been any points. I'm sure you got an insurance surchage? |

Oh geeze I knew P-A-S would bring that up.
 There is a separate compact with Ontario and Quebec that provides for "points" to be assessed for a limited of number traffic violations. It also differs in the number of points that would be assessed if the violation occurred in NYS. It covers alcohol related offenses as well.

I'm sure you are right, there was a surcharge but I don't remember it. My rates have stated the same within 20 dollars for the last couple of years. I actually got a break from my agent recently. |

Which is something I found really bizarre because if you get convicted of a moving violation in Ontario or Québec (especially route 15 north of the New York border), you will get points on your license (at least with New York State). Likewise for a Canadian caught in New York (usually on the Thruway). When I am driving up the QEW to Toronto I try to keep it well below the other drivers as a "foreigner" would be an easy revenue target. |

+1 for the Valentine 1 radar detector. It's expensive but in long run it's worth it. It has saved my ass many times especially driving through NJ. I have noticed that if you have out of state plates you have a greater chance of getting pulled over.
Here is a good site with info on radar dectectors run by an ex cop. www.radarbusters.com |

LIRR stations are car crime incubators. Get a station car and fill the glove compartment with broken glass and rusty nails.

My V1 saved me a assload of times..... the only time I really got a ticket was when I lent it to my brother on a road trip to Florida.
Oh and trust me, almost all the nypd highway patrol are using laser now. Its thier new favorite toy, and it sucks. The V1 picks it up the best, but the bad thing is, once you pick it up - they got your speed. |

The NYSP have been using these for a few years now and you are right. By the time you know that they are there, you are already dead meat. |

Saw the suction cup marks on the windshield but I suspect I was spotted removing it as I prefer parking very close to the platform. Smash and grab, couldn't believe they didn't take my PD parking plaque! Last time I ever went to that train station. |

My auto insurance agent told me he never locks his car for that reason. He would rather they just take the stuff rather than break the windows and take the stuff. |

I've litigated a case (I was not the defendant) against NYPD and LIDAR. And lost. It's indefensible. |
