Help I’m Stranded At A College In Upstate New York!

Going to college is an exciting new phase of a young person’s life, but transportation can be a headache. Young adults planning on driving to college by themselves might not always be fully licensed before they leave, either because they’re attending a college in a different state and are unsure of state laws and where to get their driver’s license, or because they didn’t have time to get their license before going to college.

To ensure young people obtain their driver’s licenses before going to college, parents and guardians must see to it that they are properly informed about licensing laws.

Licensing Laws For Teen Drivers

Licensing laws differ from one state to another, but a young person hoping to get a senior driver’s license in New York must follow the correct procedure by applying for a learner’s permit first, after which they will go on to get a junior driver’s license (also known as a provisional license).

Once a teenager has obtained a provisional license, it will automatically be upgraded to a senior driver’s license once they’re 18. Luckily young drivers don’t always have to wait till they turn 18 to get a license. In certain cases, 17-year-old drivers can upgrade their junior driver’s licenses to senior driver’s licenses at DMV offices.

Shipping Your Car In The Military

Being in the military isn’t easy, but if either you or your spouse happens to serve in the military, you’ll understand the amount of dedication it requires from the whole family. Many families are regularly relocated from one base to another, requiring everyone involved settle in at a new home whenever this happens. From children having to attend new schools, to spouses who have to find new jobs, a permanent change of station is already stressful enough before you even start to consider having to move your belongings with you.

As you know, the good news is that the government reimburses you for many of the expenses associated with moving, and with proper planning, the move might not hit you too hard financially. The government might even pay so you can ship your privately owned vehicle to your new location! But as is always the case when moving from one place to another, much preparation will have to go in to making your PCS possible.

Because you’re likely to move many times while serving in the military, you should aim to develop a strategy that makes it as painless as possible, so you don’t always have to run around in a frantic hurry whenever you get relocated.

Auto Transport to New York & New York City

As you most likely know, New York City is the largest city, by population, in New York State. It is also the largest city in the entire United States by population, which sits at over 8.49 million in the city proper. It is considered a global power city and is widely regarded as the cultural and financial capital of the entire world. Over 800 languages are spoken in the city, which also makes it the most linguistically diverse city in the world – not surprising, considering it is the largest terminal of legal immigration in the United States. It has been the largest city in the country since 1790, and served as the U.S. Capital from 1785 until 1790. It is considered one of the most economically powerful cities in the entire world.

New York City anchors a metropolitan area that is home to over 20 million residents – that’s more than the entire state of New York – and a wider Combined Statistical Area of over 23.6 million. As such, New York City is perhaps the most popular auto transport location in the entire United States and sees more auto transportation traffic through the city than any other. Because of the size of the city and the sprawl of its metropolitan area, most carriers will have an easy time getting to or from just about anywhere that’s even close to it, including areas in New York State, New Jersey or Connecticut. This generally has a good effect on your shipping price, as it tends to keep your costs lower, and also reduces pickup and delivery windows as carriers can easily include New York City in their routes.

There are a number of ways that carriers can get into or out of New York City. As a major nexus along the Interstate Highway System, New York City enjoys access via numerous interstates, in particular Interstate 95. I-95 is the main north-south corridor on the east coast and connects cities as far north as Maine with cities as far south as Miami, Florida – and all those cities in-between. It also connects to almost every major east-west interstate in the country and numerous auxiliary interstates along the way, giving auto transport carriers unprecedented access to areas across the eastern seaboard and beyond. With New York City’s dense layout, many areas of the city proper will be hard for carriers to get into or out of, so don’t be surprised if you have to meet your carrier somewhere nearby.

Most of the time, the climate in New York City won’t affect your shipment, at least during any month that doesn’t fall in the winter. Snowfall is a common occurrence in the winter, but in the denser areas of New York it tends to melt before it accumulates too much. The further north you go, the worse it can get, but on the whole the weather won’t affect your shipping prices or your services all that much. Make sure to talk to your auto transport representative to learn more about it. Sometimes the city can get hit by heavy rains and even hurricanes, as evidenced by Sandy’s landfall a few years back, but that’s pretty rare, and on the whole won’t affect your prices or services in any negative ways.
