How to Pay for Speeding Tickets in New York
A speeding ticket issued in New York City must be paid within 15 days in one of three ways. Visit the DMV office in Albany to pay in person, pay traffic ticket fines with a check by mail, or use one of the credit or debit cards accepted by the New York Traffic Violations Bureau. The TVB has a website that accepts payments for speeding tickets and other non-criminal moving violations.

Mail a check or money order to the address printed on the back of any New York traffic ticket. All tickets issued in the state have a mailing address for payments. Mail the payment on time to avoid charges for delinquent payment. Most tickets issued outside of the larger cities in New York are payable by mail or by visiting a specified DMV office in person.
