I am familiar with municipal ticket and accepting a lower/no point violation. Anybody know how it works with a ticket from the State Police?
A friend at work had this happen. Worth going to court to plead to a lower offense?
Got a moving violation ticket on the jersey turnpike around Exit 9 for
"failure to yield to the right."
(39:4-88A).
When I got on the turnpike I generally move
into the center lane to avoid the cars merging onto the turnpike. I was in the center lane and moved into the
left lane to pass the guy in front of me who was going 60. When I moved into the left lane the police
officer pulled up behind me so I went 65 (the speed limit) and didn't go faster
for fear of getting a speeding ticket,
but at 65, I clearly couldn't get over because there were cars in the
center lane.
39:4-88A says: "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."
