New Ygrk Drivers Dodge 1 Convictions by Forfeit Albany, N.Y.- (U.R) The New York State Motor Vehicles Bu reau has found that "an amaz ingly high" number of drivers are avoiding traffic convictions by forfeiting bail.-- A statewide bureau survey has revealed that upwards of 25 per cent of all tickets for speeding and other such offenses wind up as bail forfeitures'. The bureau wants legislation to plug this loophole because it allows bail-jumpers, to get around the statute that provides for au tomatic revocation of a driver's license if he has three speeding convictions in 18 months. Under the proposed law, forfeiture of bail would amount to about the same thing as conviction so far as license csuspensions and re vocations are concerned.
