TRAFFIC VIOLATIONS 4 POINTS OR LESS-   WE GO TO COURT TO TRY TO NEGOTIATE FOR   NEW "NO POINT" TICKET

 Our office helps people with traffic/ municipal court tickets.  We provide representation on  most Central New Jersey traffic cases.  Motor vehicle violations and criminal charges can cost you.  If you plead guilty by mail or in court for almost all traffic tickets, you will have to pay fines in court and will later receive points on your drivers license.  Both the DMV and your car insurance company will impose surcharges and eligibility points for three years.

         Under the New Jersey Court Rules, a New Jersey  Attorney can negotiate with the Municipal Court Prosecutor to attempt to reduce points.

 An accumulation of too many points, or certain moving violations may require you to pay expensive surcharges to the N.J. Division of Motor Vehicles or have your license suspended.  Don't give up!   We can appear in court for you on most Central New Jersey   traffic violations.

  Please call us immediately if you need experienced legal representation in a traffic/municipal court matter. We also provide representation in DWI, Criminal and other serious court matters.  Kenneth Vercammen, Esq.

vercammenlaw@njlaws.com

  When a roadway has been divided into clearly marked lanes for traffic, drivers of vehicles shall obey the following regulations:

    a.  A vehicle shall normally be driven in the lane nearest the right-hand edge or curb of the roadway when that lane is available for travel, except when  overtaking another vehicle or in preparation for a left turn.

    b.  A vehicle shall be driven as nearly as practicable entirely within a single lane and shall not be moved from that lane until the driver has first ascertained that the movement can be made with safety.

    c.  Upon a highway which is divided into 3 lanes, a vehicle shall not be driven in the center lane except when overtaking or passing another vehicle or in preparation for a left turn or unless the center lane is at the time allocated for traffic moving in the direction the vehicle is proceeding and is signposted to give notice of that allocation.

    d.  The State Highway Commissioner may by regulation or local authorities may by resolution or ordinance with respect to highways under their jurisdiction designate right-hand lanes for slow moving traffic and inside lanes for traffic moving at the speed designated for the district as provided under this chapter, and when the lanes are signposted or marked to give notice of the designation a vehicle may be driven in any lane allocated to traffic moving in the direction in which it is proceeding, but when traveling within the inside lanes the vehicle shall be driven at approximately the speed authorized in such lanes and speed shall not be decreased unnecessarily so as to block, hinder or retard traffic.

    e.  When such roadway had been divided in such a manner that there are 3 or  more lanes for traffic in any one direction, no truck of 10,000 pounds registered gross weight or over shall be driven in the farthest left-hand lane,  except when and to the extent necessary to prepare for a left turn, or when  necessary to enter or leave such roadway by entrance or exit to or from the  left lane or when reasonably necessary in response to emergency conditions.

39:4-105 Stop on Yellow stop before entering the intersection  Color system
    Traffic signals or signal devices shall conform strictly with the provisions  of this article.

    A three-color system shall be used;  red, amber and green.  Green means permission for traffic to go, subject to the safety of others or the specific directions of an officer, official sign or special signal.  Red means traffic to stop before entering the intersection or crosswalk and remain standing until  green is shown alone, unless otherwise specifically directed to go by an  officer, official sign or special signal.  

    Amber, or yellow, when shown alone  following green means traffic to stop before entering the intersection or  nearest crosswalk, unless when the amber appears the vehicle or street car is  so close to the intersection that with suitable brakes it cannot be stopped in  safety.  A distance of fifty feet from the intersection is considered a safe  stopping distance for a speed of twenty miles per hour, and vehicles and street  cars if within that distance when the amber appears alone, and which cannot be  stopped with safety, may proceed across the intersection or make a right or  left turn unless the turning movement is specifically limited.

    All other uses of green, red, amber or yellow lights so located as to be confused with traffic signals shall be discontinued.

39:4-81Traffic signals, observance; rule at nonoperational signals.
