Traffic Violations Bureau Tickets
Plead to or Pay a TVB Ticket
The New York State DMV's Traffic Violations Bureau (TVB) handles all non-criminal traffic violation tickets issued in the 5 boroughs of New York City. If you receive a traffic ticket that is answerable to the TVB you must decide whether to plead guilty to the offense and pay the required fees or plead not guilty and schedule a hearing.

Tickets Received in Another State
Your New York State Driver License will be suspended if you fail to answer a ticket for a moving violation in any state except Alaska, California, Michigan, Montana, Oregon, or Wisconsin. Your license will remain suspended until you answer the ticket.
Parking Tickets
DMV does not handle parking violations or regulate parking. If you receive a parking ticket, you must respond to the locality where it was issued. Do not contact DMV.
If you fail to answer parking tickets, the locality can notify the DMV, which can prevent the renewal of your vehicle registration or suspend your vehicle registration.
