An NYC Traffic Ticket Can Cost More Than the Fine

Paying a ticket may seem like the easiest way to put it behind you. But a conviction can also mean DMV points, added fees, higher insurance costs, or a suspension.

Gina M. Wicik represents drivers facing traffic violations throughout Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island. She reviews the allegation, your account of what happened, and the available evidence to identify issues worth challenging.

Start by finding out what the charge requires the officer to prove—and what a conviction could mean for you.

NYC Traffic Violations We Handle

The firm handles matters involving:

  • Speeding
  • Cell phone use and texting

Gina also represents clients facing criminal driving allegations, including reckless driving and driving with a suspended license. These cases follow a different process from ordinary TVB tickets.

How NYC Traffic Violations Bureau Cases Work

The New York State Traffic Violations Bureau, or TVB, handles noncriminal moving violations issued in the five boroughs. Parking tickets, camera tickets, and criminal driving charges are handled separately.

If you plead not guilty to a TVB ticket, your case proceeds to a hearing before an administrative law judge. The officer presents testimony, and you or your attorney may question the officer and present relevant evidence.

The judge decides whether the violation was established by clear and convincing evidence.

Preparing for Your TVB Hearing

Preparation starts with the exact charge and the facts surrounding the stop. Depending on the ticket, a review may include:

  • The ticket: Check the alleged violation, location, date, and hearing information.
  • Your account: Record what happened while the details are fresh.
  • Available evidence: Preserve relevant photographs, dashcam footage, documents, and witness information.
  • The officer’s observations: Identify questions about visibility, vehicle identification, traffic conditions, or how the alleged violation was observed.
  • Your driving record: Review existing convictions and possible license consequences.

Keep the original files and share them with your attorney early. The value of any evidence depends on what it actually shows and how it relates to the charge.

NYC Speeding Tickets and DMV Points

The alleged speed affects the points associated with a speeding conviction. For ordinary speeding violations, the DMV lists these values:

Speed over the posted limit DMV points
1–10 mph 3
11–20 mph 4
21–30 mph 6
31–40 mph 8
More than 40 mph 11

Work-zone speeding has a separate point rule. The precise charge and violation date matter when reviewing your exposure.

Under current DMV rules, accumulating 11 or more points within 24 months can lead to suspension. Points are calculated using violation dates, rather than simply the dates of conviction.

Use our New York traffic ticket points calculator for an initial estimate. Gina can then review the actual tickets and your record.

Received a DMV Notice About Your License?

A traffic-ticket hearing and a separate DMV license hearing may address different questions.

If you receive a suspension notice or hearing notice, send the entire document along with your ticket. The reason for the notice determines what can be challenged and which deadlines apply.

A Published Driving-Related Case Result

Queens Leaving-the-Scene Case Dismissed

In a Queens criminal matter involving a leaving-the-scene allegation, Gina coordinated the client’s surrender and arraignment. The case was ultimately dismissed.

This was a criminal driving matter, separate from the TVB process described above.
