Traffic Tickets in West Seneca

The town of West Seneca has its own justice court that has jurisdiction over several different legal matters. However, this court mostly adjudicates traffic tickets. In fact, West Seneca is one of the busiest justice courts in New York State due to its volume of traffic tickets.

Most of West Seneca’s traffic citations originate on Interstate-90 (New York State Thruway). A long stretch of the I-90 runs on a straight north-south line through West Seneca. Most of the I-90 has a 65 mph speed limit. However, through West Seneca the speed limit is generally 55 mph. Many motorists are not aware of the reduced speed, which leads to many traffic stops for speeding. This is all the more of a problem for Canadian drivers who often do not correctly acclimate to the difference between miles per hour and kilometers per hour. Many traffic stops are conducted on New York State Route 400 (Aurora Expressway). The NYS-400 crosses the town east-west. It is two lanes in each direction with a grassy median. Here the speed limit is 65 mph. Motorists clocked above 80 mph tend to get pulled over and cited. Also in West Seneca is a portion of the Southern Expressway (US-219).
