A:
In NJ, police officers generally give you the ticket immediately; no tickets are mailed.
If you misplaced your copy of the ticket, contact the municipal court in which the violation took place, and ask them for a copy of the ticket. You don't want to risk a warrant or license suspension for failure to appear.
