In New York I made an improper turn (made a left turn from the right lane)my insurance and license are from New Jersey. Will the points transfer? Should I plead guilty or get a lawyer?

An improper turn, according to the violation point systems both in New York and New Jersey, is normally 3 points on your license. The NJ Motor Vehicle Commission though has determined for out of state violations they will only assess 2 points to your driving record. So even though you do not receive the full three points, you will receive two points on your NJ license.

It is a personal choice if you want to plead guilty, get the conviction for the infraction on your record with the 2 points or get a lawyer to try and fight the ticket. You might decide this based on the amount of points you already have on your NJ driving record.

In NJ, once you have incurred 6 or more points you will be subject to an insurance surcharge of $125 and it will remain for 3 years if the motorist continues to have 6 or more points on their record. If the surcharge is not paid, all driving privileges will be suspended indefinitely.
