Re: No left turn
All moving violations in NYS are accompanied by a point penalty. In your case, if found guilty, you might receive 2 points. Refer to the DMV guidelines pasted below, and let me know if I can help further.
Driver Violation Point System
The DMV driver violation point system helps to identify drivers who commit several traffic violations during a specific time period.
Remember that the point system is not the only reason for a driver license suspension or revocation. There are mandatory suspensions or revocations. For example, the DMV must revoke your driver license if you are convicted of three speeding violations within an 18-month period and you have fewer than 11 points.
This table lists the number of points given for specific traffic violations:
Speeding (MPH over speed limit not indicated) 3
1 - 10 MPH 3
11 - 20 MPH 4
21 - 30 MPH 6
31 - 40 MPH 8
More than 40 MPH 11
Following too closely 4
Passing improperly, changing lanes unsafely, driving to the left of center, driving in the wrong direction 3
Failed to obey a traffic signal, a Stop sign, or a Yield sign 3
Railroad crossing violation 3
Failed to yield the right-of-way 3
Passenger safety violation, including seat belts, child safety seats, or passengers under the age of 16 3
Reckless driving 5
Left the scene of an accident that includes property damage or the injury of a domestic animal 3
Failed to stop for a school bus 5
Other moving violations 2
Inadequate brakes 4
Inadequate brakes (vehicle of an employer) 2
Re: No left turn
The particular infraction does have a 2 point penalty attached in N.Y. .Whether this translates to a Fla. drivers license requires more research.You may call my office @718-834-0087 for more info.
