I have a speeding ticket in Pennsylvania for 22 mph over the legal limit. In PA this is a 4 point offense, my license is however a New York license where this is a 6 point offense. Which point total would go on my driver's license, the PA point total, or the NYS point total?

Both Pennsylvania and New York are members of the Driver License Compact so this speeding ticket you received in PA will be reported back to NYS.

The New York State Department of Motor Vehicles though has decided not to record out of state violations committed by New York licensed drivers except for in certain alcohol or drug related violations or moving violations that took place in Quebec or Ontario, Canada.

Except for violation convictions coming from Quebec or Ontario, points are not added to a NY driver's record for out of state citations. So neither the points total from PA or NY will be placed on your New York driver's license in NYS.
