It depends on the speed limit. The default city speed limit is 25 mph but some streets have a speed limit of 30 mph (such as parts of Northern Boulevard) so you shouldn’t get a ticket until 40 mph, and some areas might have a lower speed limit than 25 mph such as a school zone so you could get a ticket at less than 35 mph. (I am referring to actual school zones right in front of a school with a lower posted speed limit, not the speed camera “school zones” where the school might be blocks away and might not even be visible from the road.)

This is where the the state has become criminally negligent.


Once fines start popping up in the mail by the dozens due to hidden cameras folks will be up in arms.
Doesn't matter if you are 1,2,3,4,or even 5 miles above this ridiculous speed limit of 25 mph.

The city is desperate for a severe revenue windfall and this is the focus of concentration!

1. You will not get a speeding ticket for going 1 mph over 2
2. If the city is going to nail you for speeding they might as well try to get as much cash out of it as possible. This is a good thing. It pays for ****.

I guess you were on a part of Northern Boulevard where the speed limit was 25 or are you saying you got a ticket doing 36 in a 30 mph zone?

I’d like to know what they do with the revenue stream. Is it just going to the general fund which gets scattered to any number of ridiculous projects or is it actually going into NYC to improve transit? Probably the former.

The speed limit for Northern Blvd is 25 between Queens Plaza and 112 Street, and 30 from 112 street to the LI border.
