How to fight a speeding and reckless driving(2) tickets in NJ court? I hold a Ohio license.?
Please help me with suggestions on to how best a speeding and reckless driving tickets be fought in a NJ court.
Pl suggest if u know of good lawyers who are specialized in winning traffic violation tickets.
I am planning to let the lawyer represent me in court rather than me appearing. Any idea how much a lawyer would charge for such cases? Is it a good idea to do so or should i appear in court?
Also, my driving record till date was clean. Is it true that ohio does not count on out of state violations? If i plead guilty to NJ court, will the points that i get from this out of state violation add on to my ohio license?
I appreciate your help. Thank you

How bad is DWI ? you need to have a lawyer? Please opinions?
I met this nice guy about 3 month ago, he is right now my boyfriend…but what do u think about this? he told me that about 4 years ago he got a DWI for drive and drinking, he said was just once, he made a big mistake, he went to a party and the police stop him and he got some beers…but he said that he needed a lawyer and it is true that for DWI you need a lawyer and is a misdeamanor offense..because the other day he was trying to complete an application for a civil service test and he said that one of those questions he has to answer YES…because dwi is not a minor traffic violation, is more than that? Is true? can somebody have the experience before with DWI? EXPLAIN TO ME please..Im not sure if he is hidden something or he is telling me the truth…is so bad one DWI or maybe he got more than one it is why he need a lawyer..???

Lawyers and Class C Misdemeanor?
My roommate is being charged with a Class C Misdemeanor, a traffic violation for failure to report an accident. She’s hired an attorney who was recommended by her friend, and coincidentally this is the same guy her dad recommended. He says that it’s highly unlikely that she’ll get jail time because it’s her first ever offense, and he can make it so that she doesn’t have to do community service or get her license taken away. Can a lawyer really be that good? If so, how does he go about convincing a judge of this? AND, if he prevents all of that what happens to my roommate, the charges are dropped or she has to pay a fine? I just don’t want her to get her hopes up.

Speeding Ticket law question?
Ok, so first time traffic violation, wasnt paying attention to the speed at which i was going.
…so I was returning from Myrtle Beach, SC and might have been hustling to get home, I was going up a hill and passing a few tractortrailors(who are notoriously going really slow) and was Radared at 83 in a 65mph zone(18mph over) So I did a little researching online and found a really interesting WV law as described below. I have to call the court tomorrow to plead and pick a court date. I am debating getting a traffic lawyer(exspensive) but think I might be better off road-tripping(5.5hr drive) and representing myself, word online is you can get it dramatically reduced, if not eliminated if you just show up in court and apologize and present your “scenario”. What do you think? It’s a 5point thing on my licenses and I don’t know what the fine is yet.
Ok, so my Municplie is Birch River(26601) populaion 1300. the county was Nicholas. Basicaly what the below is saying is that you can only be Radar’ed in a municiple that has a population greater than 2000. which myn did not.
I guess i am just curious if anybody has ever tried this? and do you think that it might work?
§17C-6-7. Prima facie evidence of speed by devices employing microwaves or reflected light; placing of signs relative to radar or laser.
The speed of a motor vehicle may be proved by evidence obtained by use of any device designed to measure and indicate or record the speed of a moving object by means of microwaves or reflected light, when such evidence is obtained by members of the department of public safety, by police officers of incorporated municipalities in classes one, two and three, as defined in chapter eight-a of this code, and by the sheriff and his deputies of the several counties of the state. The evidence so obtained shall be accepted as prima facie evidence of the speed of such vehicle.
In order to inform and educate the public generally that speed of motor vehicles operating within the state is being tested by radar or laser mechanisms, the division of highways shall locate and place suitable and informative stationary and movable signs at strategic points on and along highways in each county of the state giving notice to the public that such radar or laser mechanisms are in use.

West Virginia Code 3 8-1-3. Classification of municipal corporations.
Pursuant to the mandate of the “Municipal Home Rule Amendment” to the constitution of this state, all municipal corporations are hereby classified by population into four classes, as follows:
(1) Every municipal corporation with a population in excess of fifty thousand shall be a Class I city;
(2) Every municipal corporation with a population in excess of ten thousand but not in excess of fifty thousand shall be a Class II city;
(3) Every municipal corporation with a population in excess of two thousand but not in excess of ten thousand shall be a Class III city; and
(4) Every municipal corporation with a population of two thousand or less shall be a Class IV town or village.
Transition from one to another class shall occur automatically when the requisite population qualification has been met, effective as of the effective date of the census, as specified in section four of this article.
The Legislature hereby declares its interpretation of the said “Municipal Home Rule Amendment” to be that a single classification by population of municipal corporations in this state is required which shall exclude any other classification of municipal corporations by population for any purpose. It is, therefore, the intention of the Legislature that the classification established in this section shall give effect to the constitutional mandate and shall be the only classification by population applying to municipal corporations in this state. It is the further intention of the Legislature that subsequent legislation affecting municipal corporations in this state shall treat municipal corporations differently upon the basis of population, only in accordance with the general classification established in this section.
