NYS DMV Violations Points Chart

Drivers Responsibility Assessment

if a driver receives 6 or more points on their NYS driving record in 18 months, you must pay a Drivers Responsibility Assessment Fee.

If a motorist accumulates between 4 and 6 points on their license within a 24‑month period, they will receive a warning letter from the DMV about their points explaining what will occur if they receive more points.
If a motorist accumulates between 7 and 10 points on their driver’s license within a 24‑month period, they will be required to attend a Driver Improvement Clinic. (Can result in a suspension if you fail to attend the clinic.)

A driver will have to attend a formal Hearing if they reach certain point limits within a 24‑month period.
11 or more points in a 24‑month period (except where all points come from a single alcohol or drug‑related incident, in which case it doesn’t count toward the Hearing requirement)
9 or more points in a 24‑month period specifically from speeding violations
4 or more additional points in a 12‑month period after a driver has already attended a formal hearing

Taking a DMV-approved Point and Insurance Reduction Program (PIRP) course will:

help prevent you from losing your license in the event you accrued 11 or more points on your driving record
4 points are “subtracted” for the purposes of calculating a suspension if you have 11 or more points
the ticket/points do not physically come off your driving record
Save 10 percent on your automobile liability and collision insurance premiums
