That equals two points no matter what the violation was in the other state. I like the New York deal better. Ontario and Quebec? Go figure. |

Hi Guys, I moved from South to North and as a new NJ resident, I was unaware of NJ traffic rules. In April I received 2 tickets at a time,one was failure to observe traffic signal ( no turn on red 2 points) and speeding (4 points ) as I was trying to merge on GSP. In May I received one more ticket failure to observe traffic signal ( no turn on red 2 points). Total were 8 points and I don't know that, I can defend my points in court and paid the penalty online. Today I got one more 4 point speeding ticket while I was passing a steep road the cop had caught me doing 40 in 25 and making the total to 12 points. Can anyone help me how to avoid suspension of my license as my record will be entered into National Driver Register (NDR) database which is accessible for all the other 50 states. I was totally ignorant of no turn on red law. |

Replying to: santoshmanya (Jun 20, 2008 8:49 pm) On those lights, though, NJ allows right turn on red if safe after full stop unless the intersection is marked with a no turn on red sign. You might want to check the intersection. The only thing I think of immediately is maybe you can can the failure to observe traffic signal down to a failure to observe sign which doesn't carry points. It's something anyway.

Replying to: santoshmanya (Jun 20, 2008 8:49 pm) As Fezo said, NJ does allow right turn on red after a full stop, unless otherwise posted. Which kind of leads me to my 2nd point. I was unaware of NJ traffic rules. This statement troubles me. What exactly were you cited for that required you to do anything more than read road signs? The speed limit is not a secret law specific to NJ. And the turning on red, as explained above, is only a violation if there is a sign that tells you NO TURN ON RED, which again, means no requirement of knowing NJ motoring laws is necessary, you only need to read the signs.

Replying to: qbrozen (Jun 23, 2008 10:12 am) I am sorry if I had troubled you. But I had violated the law NO TURN ON RED and tried to merge Garden State Parkway and cop has given me ticket for NO TURN ON RED and Speeding. Is it fair to give ticket for speeding of someone increases speed to merge Parkway? Anyways I had learned a good lesson from NJ Traffic Cops

Replying to: santoshmanya (Jun 23, 2008 10:30 am) If no such sign exists, then you have an argument in court. Is it fair to give a ticket for speeding? well, speeding is speeding. Not sure what else to tell you there. I just can't believe a cop was sitting on an entrance ramp to the GSP. I've never seen that before. out of curiosity, what is the speed limit on an entrance ramp? Is it the limit of the GSP in that area (meaning 55 or 65)? |
