TRANSPORTATION \/ MOTOR VEHICLE INFORMATION<\/strong><\/p>\n

New residents must register their automobiles within 30 days of establishing residency. At the same time, they must obtain a New York drivers license. Proof of identity includes a current photo license from another state, a passport, citizenship papers, or military ID. Other documentation needed to register a vehicle and obtain a drivers license include an insurance identification card, verification of a New York address, proof of date of birth, and proof of signature. New residents of New York who hold a valid license from another state usually only have to take the vision test but they must relinquish their out-of-state license. Automobile insurance is mandatory in New York. For more information or answers to specific questions, contact:<\/p>\n

\nAll vehicles registered in New York State must have a safety inspection and an emissions inspection every 12 months. After you register the vehicle in New York State, you are allowed 10 days to complete the vehicle inspections. DMV-registered inspection stations display a yellow and black sign that reads, “Official Inspection Station.” For more information, contact:<\/p>\n

Vehicle Safety Regulations<\/strong>
\nUnder New York State law, safety restraint use is required for all front seat occupants regardless of age. This also applies to all rear seat passengers under 16 years of age. Children under age four must be restrained in a federally approved child safety seat. New York’s zero-tolerance policy for seat belt violations means that violators will receive a ticket if stopped for not using a safety restraint.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
