Boating Frequently Asked Questions - NYS Parks, Recreation & Historic Preservation

No, the icon can only be placed on licenses and ID's issued by the NYS DMV.
Do I need to notify DMV before they renew my license or ID?
	No. DMV will maintain a record of your having completed the boating safety course, and automatically place the icon on your license each time it is renewed.
I have a U.S. Coast Guard License; Can that be listed on the Adventure License?
	No, only boating safety certificates can be listed.
What happens if I move out of state?
	If you move out of state you must relinquish your NY Driver license and apply for a driver's license in your new state. In order to maintain the Adventure License status you will need to apply for a NY Non-Driver ID which will include that designation and maintain it continuously.
I have a lifetime fishing and hunting license and a boating safety certificate. Can I put all three on my driver's license?
	Yes you may.
I live in NY but I have an out of state boating safety certificate, do I qualify for the Adventure License program?
	No, you must have a New York safe boating certificate to be eligible.
I got my boating safety certificate online and tried to get the Adventure License through my provider but I when I click on the link it brings me back to a NYS information page. What do I have to do?
	You must log into your account created with your online provider. For more information, click on the link below for your provider and follow the directions on the document that pops up. Alternatively, you can bring your printed certificate to any DMV office.

Research & Reports
Jury Service - jury_service
You must report for jury service if you are qualified and you have not been excused or had your service postponed. Any person who fails to respond may be fined up to $1,500, incarcerated, or both. Carefully follow the instructions on the summons and contact the court if you need help.
Transportation
Although many courts offer parking for jurors, it is often scarce. Free transit service may be available in your area. Check your summons or contact your local jury office for more information.
Emergencies
If there is an emergency at home, you can be contacted at the courthouse. In an emergency, the judge can excuse you at any time during the trial, even during deliberations, and an alternate can take your place. Of course, the emergency must be significant. The judge will make the final decision.
Security
When you enter the courthouse, you may go through a metal detector. Your handbag, briefcase, backpack, and any containers may be x-rayed. Objects like knitting needles, scissors, nail clippers, pocket knives, and weapons are not allowed. If you have forbidden items, you may be asked to leave the courthouse and return without them. Security officers might keep items they think are hazardous. They may or may not be returned to you when you leave the courthouse. Alcoholic beverages are also not allowed.
Courtroom Requirements
We suggest you wear comfortable clothing that fits with the importance and dignity of the courtroom. Shorts, tank tops, bare midriffs, or similar dress are not allowed. Business attire is always appropriate. Check your summons or local jury office for more information. You may not use computers, cellular phones, cameras, or tape recorders in the courtroom. They may not be allowed in the courtroom even if they are shut off.
Age & Health
You may be excused if you have a serious health problem. If you are sick or injured, you may postpone your service or request an excuse. If you are disabled, you may request a permanent medical excuse. Follow the directions on the summons for postponement or excuse. A doctor's note may be required. If you need special accommodations, contact the court right away.
FAQs • Traffic
The pedestrian signal, when activated, provides time for the pedestrian to enter the street on the steady "Walk" and to finish crossing the street on the flashing "Don't Walk" signal. The pedestrian signal is normally activated by a push-button that tells the signal controller that there is a pedestrian who wishes to cross the street.	

4.
How much will this citation cost? 

The court sets all fines and will inform you by mail regarding the amount owed, or will do so in court on your court date. 	

5.
May I attend traffic school to take care of this citation? 

DMV allows drivers to attend court-approved traffic school once every 18 months, and drivers must pay all the applicable fines and fees for their citations, plus the additional amount for the school itself.However, by attending traffic school the violation will not be added to your record.	

6.
May I pay my traffic citation by mail? 

Yes. The court will mail out a notice but does not guarantee its delivery. If you receive a notice in the mail, you may pay the fine via mail. Otherwise, you need to appear in court on the date and time listed on the citation.	

7.
May I contest this citation? 

Yes. Appear in court on the date and time listed on your citation, and explain to the judge that you wish to contest the citation.	

8.
What if the court does not send me a letter after I get a traffic citation? 

If you don't get a letter, you must appear in court. The court date, time and location will be indicated on the bottom of your citation.	

9.
What is red light running?

A violation occurs when a motorist deliberately enters an intersection after the signal light has turned red. Motorists who are already in an intersection when the signal changes to red - while waiting to turn, for example - are not red light running.	

10.
Is red light running a serious problem?

Drivers who run red lights are responsible for an estimated 260,000 crashes in the U.S. each year, killing over 800 people each year.
