Speeding ticket book
Wednesday, July 14th, 2010I found an interesting site that has legal information on how to beat a speeding ticket in court. They say many municipalities are writing WAY more tickets than last year to generate revenue during this economy. The only way to beat a ticket is using the legal system against them.
Here’s the speeding tickets site if you have a ticket.
New Jersey speeding tickets by laser
Wednesday, August 12th, 2009If you get a NJ speeding ticket by laser, there are a couple of legal requirements the officer must meet, and failute to meet them could be grounds to get your case dismissed.
The controlling legal case states in part:
3. Pre-operational checking procedures recommended by the manufacturer of the laser speed detector shall be shown to have been made in each case.
4. Speed measurements shall be admitted whether made in daylight or at night and within any temperature range likely to be found in New Jersey, even if made under conditions of light or moderately heavy rainfall, but speed measurements taken during heavy rain or while snow is falling shall not be admitted without the support of adequate expert testimony in the individual case.
5. Speed measurements made at any distance up to 1,000 feet shall be admitted, but measurements made at any distance in excess of 1,000 feet shall be admitted only with the support of adequate expert testimony in the individual case.
IF you were stopped in heavy snow, or outside of 1,000 feet, you may have grounds for dismissal.
