Of course. The New York State DMV records the out-of-state convictions of any New York driver for criminal negligence, homicide, or assault, which arise out of the operation of a motor vehicle and which results in death.
Do you want to know what this means for your license?
No, I can imagine. I'm afraid I'll lose my license, especially since I depend on it.
I had problems with alcohol and driving before, does this mean my license is gone?
Yes, your license will be revoked for at least one year or until the age of 21, whichever is longer.
Wonderful, FML. What if I fail to answer a moving violation in NY?
Drivers from any state, except those from the six states listed above, will have their driver licenses suspended in their own state for failure to answer a moving violation in New York State.
Well, for how long will my license be suspended? I don't know why I am even asking, my license is going to be revoked anyway.
Your NY State Driver License will be suspended if you fail to answer a ticket for a moving violation in any state except Alaska, California, Michigan, Montana, Oregon or Wisconsin. Your license will remain suspended until you answer the ticket.
But wait, what if all this happened OUTSIDE of NY?
