I was driving my sister’s car and I’m not the registergoing owner or on the insurance. Will that be a problem when I go for the hearing?

More information is needed to properly answer your question and it could be a big problem especially if an accident occurred. I suggest you speak to a lawyer and it is easy as most of us offer free in office consultations.
For any paper work. I was already getting some out. He walked back to his car and sat in there and drove off after a minute. Never said if he was giving me a ticket. Should I expect one in the mail?

Maybe? Unfortunately Attorneys are not bookies so your guess is as good as ours, but if you get the ticket in the mail its 5 points so I suggest you get yourself a good traffic ticket lawyer.

That would be true not just with this notice but any notice telling you to appear in municipal or criminal court.

How do I fight the ticket so I don't get points on my NJ license?
answered on Jan 26, 2018
New Jersey belongs to two different interstate compacts. The interstate compact is called the Nonresident Violator Compact. This compact requires member states to report tickets received by drivers to their home state. Consequently, once the ticket or the DWI is reported, then they will receive... View More

More information is needed, but your GPS cannot give you permission to enter private property to turn around. You can only enter private property if your looking to business with the owner or store etc. Thus you have not presented a valid defense. A lawyer can eliminate the points on this ticket... View More
for about 4 days without moving and it got towed for abandonment, but I live there and I got 5 tickets through mail and a court date. 4 of the tickets are 2 of the same and the other 2 the same as well on the same date and time by the same officer. Can they do that?
answered on Jan 25, 2018
Many towns have an ordinance that you cannot park a car for more than 24 or 48 hours without moving it, this is probably the case with you. You may want to hire a lawyer to fight down the fines and penalties, but unfortunately a sign is not needed if an ordinance exists. You are presumed to know... View More

The best advise is to find a friend and see if they can loan you the money or to go to court when it is in session and beg the court for mercy which unfortunately is generally not given when you miss a court date.
Hi,
This happened in Jersey City. I got a ticket for $ 110 for parking in a reserved space but there was no clear indication of reserved lots by way of sign board. There were 4 signboards (for reserved parking) for an entire row of approx 10 parking lots and the floor was not marked, no... View More

While you may have a case, the cost of the lawyer would certainly be much more than the ticket.
You could try proceeding on your own, but your time has value too. You may or may not be able to convince a judge. You need to weigh this in deciding whether to fight it or not. My feeling... View More

(254-20B No Overnight Truck Parking $125.00) I take my work truck home every night and park it in front of my house as I do not have driveway access. I have done this for years.

IN NJ mistake on the tickets are mostly clerical errors such as you got and would not dismiss the ticket. As for can you fight the ticket sure, but the law states no trucks overnight, its no trucks over night thus you can't park it in the town and will have to park it in a paid lot as most... View More
Found me guilty without appearing in December. Sent notice of fine due. Failure to pay results in arrest warrant.???? True?
answered on Jan 19, 2018
Hi,
Yes they will issue a warrant if fine is not paid. However, if you are a NY driver, and received a ticket in NJ, you can just pay the fine, since the points do not transfer to NY.

Unfortunately it is your word against the cops and he will win, unless you have a good lawyer on your side.

Attorney's are not allowed to quote fees here over the internet. Your best bet is to call up one of us traffic ticket lawyers and set up the free in office consultations we offer.

You generally get delaying traffic but it's up to the cop.
On our way back from an overnight trip to New York City, my friend who had driven the 5 us had gotten pulled over in New Jersey for speeding. On top of that summons that was issued to the driver, the officer gave the three passengers in the rear a summons for $46 as well for failure to wear a... View More

When you travel to another state you are implied to know the law of that state and thus if you don't follow the law you are subject to getting a summons. Can you fight the summons, sure, can you win is the real answer and based on your defense I predict no.
answered on Jan 9, 2018
In that case you probably still have a warrant for your arrest and you are still unable to get your license back until you deal with this ticket. I suggest you call one of us traffic ticket lawyers up and setup the free in office consultation we offer to fix this situation.
The spot was along the curb, the sign was located at the foot of the spot and was twisted toward the spot behind me so was not readily visible. It was also higher than the max 72" height. Can I successfully fight that this is not a legal handicapped parking spot?
answered on Jan 2, 2018
Yes you can fight it, but in Newark it is hard to win any ticket even when the sign is not present. Having a lawyer increases the odds of winning, BUT is not economically effective unless this is 2nd or higher offense.
answered on Jan 2, 2018
You will need to go down to the court and you can request a copy, generally 5 cents a page for each copy.

She will spend as many days in jail as the judge decides.
The vehicle was sold for $400 cash due to mechanical issues. The guy simply put other tags on the car and drove off, I didn't realize I needed to hold him accountable to registering myself.

The utility access area is generally private property, BUT the police are given in most municipalities the right to enforce the local traffic laws on that property. You would need to research this to see whether this was true for this township and this property or hire a lawyer to do so, which... View More
