Do you have 3 or more alcohol-related convictions on your entire driving record?
Yes, unfortunately.
Then a plea of guilty to a violation that results in 5 or more points may result in the revocation of your license under Part 132 of the Commissioner's Regulations. You may want to consult with an attorney before entering your plea.
What if I don't respond to my ticket after getting a suspension notice?
Then you will automatically be convicted of the charge. This is known as a default conviction. The default conviction is equivalent to a guilty finding.
Who is processing the tickets? The DMV?
DMV's Traffic Violations Bureau TVB processes tickets for non-criminal moving traffic violations issued in the five boroughs of New York City. For more information about the TVB, you can read our brochure.
Can certain violations cause the suspension of my license?
Yes. Some convictions can cause the suspension or the revocation of your driver license. See Suspensions and Revocations or read the DMV brochure "Suppose Your License Were Taken Away".
Will do. If I want to answer my ticket, can I send my response by mail?
Yes, you can mail your response to us.
I'll send the envelope on the way today. What about violations in other parts of NY?
