hmmm... well, I'm not sure how it will affect you. My guess is, it won't. This isn't exactly the same thing, but years ago my brother had his license suspended here in NJ. Shortly after, he moved down to Florida for a short time and had no problem getting a new clean license down there.

That's a pretty interesting situation you have there. I don't have any idea as to how that turns out but agree that it's probably not worth much.
 
If you have a prosecutor that doesn't want to deal you are in a tough spot anyway. In order to pursue the no point option you need a prosecutor, cop and judge who are willing to do that. If any one of the three don't want to you have a no go.

You people think I should just pay? seems like a wasted effort - went there twice already...

Poker reference.
 
it means to cut your losses and throw in the towell. Yes, you've made the trip twice, but at what point to you just give up and pay the ticket? I say sooner rather than later, personally.

prosecutor threatened me to increase my ticket from careless driving to speeding if I don't pay the ticket, while i was in his room. Are they allowed to do that?

i don't know. i mean, i don't see how they can legally INCREASE your offense after the fact. But i'm not a lawyer.

I don't know either since I'm not a lawyer either.
 
My best guess, and it is only that, is that the current ticket is as expensive as it's going to get since the prosecutor won't cut any deals.
 
In all the time I've been here this is the first time I've run into a story with such a prosecutor. Usually if someone is going to throw a wrench into the works it's the judge or most likely the cop.
 
That said, I agree with qbrozen at this point. Pay the ticket and move on. Would that I could do better than taht.

Avoiding Traffic Signal by grs3

I just got a ticket for a 39:4-66.2 violation in NJ called avoiding traffic signal. I think its bogus, was stopped at the light but went straight and than turned into a hotel parking lot and came out onto the highway. I honestly didn't know it was illegal. Anyway its 2 points and $85. I'm curious if there's a way to fight the charge and not get totally screwed. I have 2 "reduced" violations from 4 years ago and believe the limit is 2 over 5 years. Am I better off just to pay and take the points?
