Impending License Suspensions for 51,000 New York Drivers

Failure to submit vision tests by December 1 deadline could lead to suspensions.

Nearly 51,000 New York drivers face license suspensions if they don't submit vision tests by December 1, 2023.
The suspensions will affect drivers who renewed their licenses between March 1, 2020, and August 31, 2021.
During the pandemic, drivers were allowed to renew their licenses online by temporarily self-certifying their vision test requirement.
Driving with a suspended license in New York can result in a ticket or fines of $200 to $500, and possible jail time of up to 30 days.
Vision tests can be taken at a state-approved location or a vision test report form can be submitted, both available on the DMV's website.
