#PAY DRIVER ASSESSMENT FEE NYS DRIVERS#
The purpose of the assessment is to prevent the repeated behavior of problem drivers and to improve traffic safety.”Įffective November 18, 2004, there are three instances that DMV will require the payment of a Driver Responsibility Assessment: This fee is in addition to any fines, penalties or surcharges that you must pay for a traffic conviction. “ The driver responsibility assessment is a fee you must pay to DMV over a three year period if you are convicted of certain traffic offenses in New York State or accumulate 6 or more points on your driving record within 18 months. The answer to this questions can be found below and on DMV’s website and states: So, if you are reading this, the first thing you may ask, or even say out loud, is “ What the hell is a Driver Responsibility Assessment and why should I pay it?” What I wasn’t prepared for, was the volume of daily telephone calls and website inquires I received from drivers who already plead guilty to their Speeding or Traffic Tickets and were mesmerized to find out that after they accepted the points and paid their fines and surcharges to the court, the New York State Department of Motor Vehicles (“DMV”), poured lemon juice on their paper cut, by demanding that they pay a Driver Responsibility Assessment (“DRA”) or risk having their New York State (and possibly their home state) driving privileges suspended. Like any attorney, the idea was to help people, increase business and get more clients.

*IF YOU ARE TRYING TO REACH THE NEW YORK STATE DEPARTMENT OF MOTOR VEHICLES WITH REGARD TO SPECIFIC DRIVER RESPONSIBILITY ASSESSMENT QUESTIONS, PLEASE CALL DMV AT 51.Ī while back, I wrote a blog post called “ New York State Driver Responsibility Assessment And Out Of State Drivers” with the hope that both New York and Out-of-State drivers receiving Speeding and Traffic Tickets in the State of New York would read the article and contact me before they plead guilty.
