No right on red (out-of-staters)
2 pts + ~$150 fine
The #1 ticket given to drivers visiting NYC. NY uses the Driver License Compact — your home state will see it.
Christopher Walken had the 1990 movie. James Medows has the 2026 docket.
Manhattan is the densest enforcement zone in the country. Out-of-state drivers get hit for no-right-on-red, FDR speeders get clocked north of 96th, bus lane cameras don't sleep, and 14th Street busway is a tourist trap. James handles all of it.

Dense radar enforcement north of 96th Street. The 50 mph zone shifts to 40 mph quickly — easy to miss.
14th Street, 1st & 2nd Avenue, 3rd Avenue — cameras enforce automatically. Rideshare drivers and fleet vehicles get hit hardest.
20 mph zones during school-zone hours. Cameras don't blink. Upper West Side school clusters are dense.
Red-light cameras at major crosstown intersections. Often beatable on visibility / timing grounds.
Aggressive enforcement on the Manhattan side. The approach is short and the citations rack up fast at rush hour.
