A traffic violation can result in significant consequences if the ticket is not handled properly. Individuals frequently underestimate the impact of a speeding summons or more serious offense only to discovery that their plea of guilty has mushroomed into surcharges, escalating insurance rates and even a license suspension from the court or New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission. Every moving violation results in points on your license. Accumulation of points results in surcharges and a revocation of your privileges to drive once you reach twelve (12). The key is to avoid this cycle by escaping the points in the first place. Paying your ticket will accomplish nothing other than to start you in this downward process and subject you to the penalties set forth in the Motor Vehicle Code. These penalties include a mandatory driver's license suspension if you are convicted of possession of cds in a motor vehicle, driving without insurance, leaving the scene of an accident involving injuries and driving while suspended.
