The New York State Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) violation point system notes that going between 21 and 30 mph over the speed limit is a 6 point offense.
It does not appear that there are any extra points given for speeding in a work zone, but the fine attached to the ticket is doubled. The NYS Work Zone Safety Act of 2005 (which became effective on Jan 10, 2006) allows the DMV to give a driver a mandatory 60 day license suspension if a motorist receives 2 or more speeding tickets in a work zone within 18 months.
Exceeding the speed limit in a work zone also allows the State of New York to hand down a $50 surcharge, in addition to your speeding citation fine. In addition to the fines and points received for this speeding ticket in a work zone, you may possibly have a driver responsibility assessment. This is usually required by NYS if you receive six or more points on your driver record during a period of 18 months and the violations occurred on or after November 18, 2004.
For receiving 6 points on your driver record during a period of 18 months the annual assessment is $100. The minimum amount you that you must pay each year is the annual assessment. The total assessment for the three years is $300.
If you were to get more tickets and receive more than 6 points on your driver record during this period of 18 months, the annual assessment is $25 for each point more than the original six points. The total assessment for the three years is $75 for each point more than the original six points.
As for the fine amount for the speeding offense, New York Vehicle and Traffic (VAT) laws section 1180 discusses the laws regarding speeding and the penalties for breaking the speed restrictions that the state set. If you know what exact section of the law you were cited under then you can research the parameters your fine amount by reading through the NYS VAT laws. However the legalese used in writing the laws can be confusing so it is would likely be easier to call the court listed on your citation.
Contacting the court will be more a more accurate way to find out your fine anyway since the amount you pay is set by the magistrate of the court in which the ticket is answerable. Even though there are minimum and maximum penalty amounts that are established by NYS law, the judge presiding over the case will make the final determination of any penalty to be imposed.
Questions regarding potential penalties should be referred to the court having jurisdiction over your specific case; it should be listed on your traffic ticket. Remember the normal speeding fine amount will be doubled since you were ticketed for speeding in a construction or work zone. You may also want to contact the NYS DMV to see if you will be getting a driver responsibility assessment.
