ABOUT THE COURT

Warrensburg Town Court maintains a criminal, civil, and traffic calendar.  The criminal docket can include instances of Harassment in the 2nd Degree, Prostitution, and DWI.  The civil docket can cases such as landlord tenant disputes, local zoning code violations, and monetary disputes.  The traffic calendar often is replete with charges stemming from VTL 1180. VTL 1180 and is subsequent sections are the most common section of law in New York wherein driver’s are charged with speeding.  They receive a large number of speeding tickets from the jurisdiction portion of I-87.

POINTS ON A LICENSE

A conviction to a moving violation will have varying degrees for which points can be assessed on a license.  For example, cell phone violations carry a 5 point penalty.  Meanwhile, a speeding conviction can vary from 3 points to 11 points depending on the severity of the charge.

Points will affect a driver’s privilege to drive for 18 months from the date in which the ticket was issued.  In other words, the points do not run from the date of the conviction.  They run from the moment the officer issued the summons.

INSURANCE AND POINTS

A conviction to a violation with points does not convert into an automatic insurance increase.  The algorithm that most insurance companies use to assess an insurance increase is proprietary in nature and not widely shared the public.  There are many factors that can be taken into consideration including but not limited the driver’s age, type of vehicle driving, and accident history.
