A: You need to retain a traffic ticket/criminal defense attorney. Never post personal information on a public website. Good luck.

A: 39:4-97. A person who drives a vehicle carelessly, or without due caution and circumspection, in a manner so as to endanger, or be likely to endanger, a person or property, shall be guilty of careless driving.
