Traffic Tickets Between Ny And Canada

I got a speeding ticket in new york and I live in Canada I read thisarticle on traffic tickets between NY and Canada, but I'm not sure of it is accurate. Anyone know the law?

AFAIK, NY and Ontario reciprocate, in other words, a NY ticket will show up on your Ontario abstract.

okay. Thanks for your help!

That is correct. Ontario has a reciprocal agreement with New York, Michigan and all other Provinces.

The New York ticket will show up as if it's been committed in Ontario. Speeding is a charge that can be transferred. You will receive the equivalent Ontario demerit points as if you had committed the violation here. 50+ will remain speeding and 6 demerit points, but I don't believe you'd receive the 7-day licence suspension.
