Tickets don't just go away and eventually if you don't pay them they turn into a warrant or a suspension of your drivers license or both. You can pay the warrant any time at any NJ police station, BUT if you want to pay it at the court you have to wait to do this during the weekday. The... Read more »

The best defense to any ticket is to hire a good lawyer.
The second best is to prove someone else was driving your car.
In general the maximum fine is $200.00 plus court costs and 2 points. That being said: Under NJSA: 39:5-31: A judge may suspend the driving privileges of... Read more »
I was not the person driving and it was not my car that was stopped. The tickets were issued in East Orange, NJ. The driving had temporary plates that expired on a car that is not registered to me and provided the cops with my name and information to avoid getting a ticket. How do I fight this.
answered on May 4, 2022
To fight this ticket, it seems to me one would hire an attorney who knows and perhaps has the professional experience required to represent the defendant at trial.

Did I receive points on my license even though the ticket was dismissed?
answered on May 3, 2022
When a ticket is dismissed in NJ you don't get any points.
Did I receive points on my license even though the ticket was dismissed?
answered on May 4, 2022
The New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission does not assign points unless and until a judgment of conviction for a motor vehicle offense is entered by the Municipal Court. This can appear to be a seamless process, but without the conviction, no points will be applied to the license. Therefore, if the... Read more »
court notice was received for appearance for no insurance card. There was never a traffic stop. It appears that someone reported a hit and run with my car two-three months prior and this is how they were contacting me by issuing a ticket?? It just doesn't sound right. The ticket date does...

Definitely get yourself a lawyer because if you end up getting charged with no insurance you could face loss of your license to drive. And yes you can be issued a ticket without being stopped by a police officer. I suggest that you set up one of the free in office consultations that most of us... Read more »
littering from a moving vehicle
answered on Apr 27, 2022
This is a common ticket but you failed to ask a question about it.
Same violation is this legal?
answered on Apr 24, 2022
As long as you only get one ticket in the town its was legal as each town you went thru another town its definitely a separate violations.
I am in NJ and was issued a ticket today under statue 39:3-74 - I have a small idol of a deity on the dashboard of my car
answered on Apr 21, 2022
I suggest that you pay it as even if you had a defense, which you did not present in your question. Your not allowed to have anything that blocks the view of the windshield in front of you in your car.
Can I possibly get the 39:3-40 thrown out because I obviously wasn't driving? As for the 39:6B-2 since NJ cops can't see your insurance info can I get this one thrown out because there's no way he could of known I didn't have insurance. I also got a ticket for no registration... Read more »

Anything is possible and the driving while suspended is the most likely ticket to get dismissed since as you say they did not see you driving. However, they don't need to see you driving to ticket you for this offense and thus you could still lose its the ability to drive so even if your... Read more »

Sure you can fight any ticket in court the question is what is your defense because if you don't have a good one will just waste your time and lose as this is a document charge and you either have them or don't
I was not the person that was in the car. This person used my information, now I must appear in court. Is there anything I can do about this. The tickets were issued in East Orange, NJ.
In addition, this person was not driving my car. It was a different car with temporary license plate.
answered on Apr 11, 2022
Definitely get yourself a good lawyer this case is not as easy as you may think to win in fact its easy to lose if the officers says he saw you in the car. In NJ an officer does not have to pull you over to ticket you and in fact many times the registered owner gets the ticket, but you can win... Read more »

No its not worth hiring a lawyer for this ticket because for most people this will just be a fine of around $100.00
I’m in need of a public defender/ lawyer in NJ, any recommendations? Do I take a plea agreement or get a lawyer/public defender.
answered on Apr 4, 2022
All three charges could result in jail time. A lot depends on the facts of your case your prior criminal history and of course how good of a lawyer you hire to try to avoid that time.
Name & address. He Wrote the wrong year make model color and license plate #of the vehicle I was driving. Is there a way that I can use that in court to beat the charge?
I was also curious if there is such a thing or law call constructive driving. You know when they can give you a... Read more »
answered on Apr 3, 2022
Those errors on the ticket would not be fatal to the charge as long as the ticket was given to you and the officer can testify to that. Second if the keys were no where inside the car you could have a defense. Now the question is will the judge buy it and if you have a good lawyer I would say yes... Read more »

If you can figure out a good defense you probably can get this charged lowered or downgraded but you have not presented one in this question. If you are found guilty of this offense you will be subject to a fine not exceeding $500.00 or imprisonment in the county jail for not more than 60 days.... Read more »
My daughter was going 86 in a 55. Got a 39:4-215 failure to obey signs signals and direction. She got one hell of a break from the cop? Right?
answered on Mar 29, 2022
Its not points for MVC purposes in NJ and yes he should send a thank the officer as many judges would have suspended his license at that speed.
answered on Mar 24, 2022
The answer would depend on the violation that you received since you have not given us the violation we could not give you a certain answer.
