I have a New York State driver’s license and received an out of state ticket. Both states share information. Now I know NYS does not record minor out of state violations. However the ticket I got is a federal ticket as it was in a military base. Does the "out of state" rule still apply or would this go to my NYS record and add points?

As you stated New York does share and receive in information with other states in regards to moving violations NYS licensed drivers obtain out of state.

We believe that this would fall into the "out of state" information given by the NYS DMV, meaning that it would not be added to your NYS driving record or be assigned points however we have posed the question to the New York State Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) to make certain.

The NYS DMV responded that they do not record out-of-state violations committed by NYS drivers in other jurisdictions. This would include a military base. The exceptions are alcohol-related violations, drug-related violations, and moving violations committed in Quebec or Ontario. Under special agreements, traffic convictions in Quebec or Ontario are recorded on NYS driver license records and carry points.

The NY Department of Motor Vehicles also noted that except for violations in Ontario and Quebec, points are not added to your NYS record for out-of-state violations, even those received on a military base as a military ticket.

So your New York driving record should not have this military base federal moving violation listed on it or have points assessed if you are convicted of the offense.
