I am an 18-year-old New Jersey driver with just one month of having my license. Will PA allow me to plea down the ticket to zero point violation?
answered on Apr 10, 2020
You need to ask your insurance company this question. But the Pennsylvania ticket will transfer to New Jersey as two points.

You're not allowed to put anything on your front windshield that could obstruct your view even a air freshener is considered to do this so the light would be even worse.

More information would be helpful, but if your employer reported to the police that on that occasion you knowingly disobeyed company policy or instruction, then conceivably you’re personally responsible . You can not rely on the employer to defend you so retain independent counsel right away... View More
I don't understand why two tickets were given to me and both of them have similar description.

Generally it's because the passenger is a minor but that's just a guess.
Without being pulled over, and states an officer attempt to pull me over (but never did) but failed in pursuit of another speeding driver. Officer also used Pace to track my speed. Can this be dropped?
answered on Mar 5, 2020
In New Jersey an officer does not need to pull you over to give a ticket. Pace is also considered a reliable way to track speed. That being said a good lawyer should be able to help you reduce the points for the tickets that you're facing. I suggest that you set up one of the free in office... View More

Looks like you wrote the code wrong, but an attorney would need to review the complaint to give you a proper answer.
answered on Feb 26, 2020
The answer varies per Court and whether you have a court appearance required but it does come with points so you may want to hire a lawyer to represent you.
I was not driving the vehicle.
answered on Feb 25, 2020
Yes but they could probably reissue the ticket so get a good lawyer to make sure you have the best chance of a dismissal.
For unregistered vehicle

For this type of ticket since it does not require movement of the car for the offense,so yes the officer can leave the ticket on the car but it would generally be mailed to you.
The parked truck was in my blind spot but later the other driver came to the scene and called the cops and they gave me a careless driving ticket. Should I fight it

An attorney cannot ethically solicit a client. Thus, you will need to reach out to one of us traffic ticket lawyers. If it is a serious case with a mandatory court appearance, you will probably need to appear in court. So don't expect the attorney to be able to handle it without at least... View More
On the way home. I received two tickets. Can I hire a lawyer? To appear for me and waive my appearance for the second ticket that has no price.
answered on Feb 10, 2020
The answer is it depends. In general if you hire a lawyer you may be able to avoid having to appear in court. However, that rule changes when you have a mandatory court appearance ticket. In that case a lawyer will need to convince the judge you don't need to come. And in cases such as DWI... View More
