How many points is a seat belt ticket in NY?
I got pulled over while driving through New York and I got a ticket for not wearing my seat belt properly. How many points will I get on my license for this kind of ticket?

I’m sorry to hear that you got pulled over. You typically will not get any points for a seat belt ticket in
NY
. You may be fined anywhere from $25 to $100 for the offense, though.That said, you will get three license points if the person who was improperly restrained was under 16. If a child has not been properly restrained in the appropriate kind of seat, the driver will suffer the consequences on their driving record.
Sometimes, a traffic infraction will raise your insurance rates. To make sure you’re still getting the best deal, check out the
