More Speeding Cameras Added Spring 2026 to New York State Roads

10 miles over the speed limit is when the automated cameras in New York State will send you a speeding ticket to your house. More speeding cameras are being added in New York State this Spring in 2026.

There will be a 30 day notification period, where no tickets will be given, but a warning is posted on signs in the area where the automated speeding cameras will be placed. After that 30 day period, drivers who are speeding will start getting tickets sent directly to their houses. Right now, the cameras that are being installed as part of this program will be active until 2031.

Here is how the automated speeding cameras will work:

• If you go 10 miles per hour or more over the speed limit you will get a ticket
• The ticket will come right to your house.
• There will be pictures of your car and license plate as it is speeding through the speed trap.
• You will get your ticket within 14 days of the speeding offense.
• You can contest the ticket if you believe there is a mistake.

How much are the speeding tickets in the automated working zones?

• First Violation: $50 fine
• Second Violation: $75 fine if within an 18-month period of first violation
• Third and Subsequent Violations: $100 fine if within an 18-month period of first violation

Here is what it looks like when you get an automated speeding ticket in the mail:

There are two ways to pay that is listed on the ticket. You can pay by credit card or by check or money order. If you want to pay by check, you have to pay "NYS Work Zone Speed Enforcement Program and the address is in Pennsylvania. The company that New York State must have hired is a processing company out of state, which is pretty ironic. I know that the cameras are to keep people safe, but you can't help but think there is an element of a "money grab" for the State, according to the New York State website on WYRK.
