New Jersey Traffic Offense - Traffic Violations

Toll Free: 1.866.NJLAWFIRM

Every day traffic tickets are issued in this State. More than 80% of people simply plead guilty and pay the fine to avoid the cost and time in going to court. However, many of these charges have consequences other than the fine. Many traffic violations carry license suspensions, motor vehicle points and may affect your insurance and driving privileges. After a certain number of points, your insurance rates may be affected and your drivers' license may be suspended or revoked.

The New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission will automatically send an Advisory Notice if your point total is between 6 and 11 points. For a total of 12 or more points, the Motor Vehicle Commission will issue an automatic Notice of Scheduled Suspension. Even after your license is restored, all point violations remain on your permanent Driver

In addition to possible suspension, if you are assigned points on your Driver License, you will have to pay point surcharges in addition to any court-imposed fines and penalties. Surcharges remain operational as long as a motorist has six or more points on record resulting from violations posted in the preceding three years. The point total is based on the date the violations are posted to your record, not the date when the violations occurred. If the surcharge is not paid, MVC will suspend all driving privileges indefinitely and take judgment action filed in the state Superior Court, which may include securing a lien against any real property that you own, a garnishment of your wages, or other similar actions. The point surcharges are $150 for six points and $25 for each additional point.

In addition to points and fines, some traffic tickets also impose suspensions, community service, and possible jail time.

If you have been issued a traffic ticket and would like to discuss the penalties imposed, or any possible defenses and any possible lesser charges, please schedule a free confidential consultation by calling us at 1.866.NJLAWFIRM or completing our online intake form.
