Traffic Ticket in Hillside New Jersey

Hillside has a much higher volume of traffic than you might expect for a Union County municipality of approximately 21.000 residents. The primary reason is because both Interstate 78 and the Garden State Parkway, two of the busiest motor vehicle arteries in the New Jersey, run through Hillside. When you combine all of these motorists with those operating along U.S. Route 22 and local roadways, it makes for a thousands of opportunities for traffic ticket issuance by the Hillside Police and state troopers in the township. In fact, approximately 4,000 moving traffic offenses and motor vehicle violations were issued in Hillside last year alone. For those faced with a traffic ticket, the difference between stiff consequences and a favorable result definitely had a lot to do with the attorney selected to defend them.

Traffic Offense in Hillside New Jersey

There are a slew of penalties and collateral consequences that result from a conviction for a moving traffic offense. There are fines, motor vehicle points, increased insurance costs and surcharges that can result from just about any motor vehicle violation. There are also some charges that carry mandatory suspension of your license or even jail. The attorneys at the Law Offices of Jonathan F.

  • Reckless Driving
  • Leaving the Scene of an Accident
  • Driving While Suspended
  • Driving Without Insurance

  • Possession of CDS in a Motor Vehicle
  • DWI
  • Careless Driving
  • Improper Passing

Individuals faced with a traffic violation have a tendency to underestimate the impact that a charge can have before it is too late. If you are convicted of driving without insurance, for example, you will have your driver’s license suspension for a mandatory minimum period of one year. The period of revocation is even worse for possession of drugs in a motor vehicle at two years. Even a first offense for driving while suspended in Hillside carries the potential for you being suspended for an additional six months. It is also common for a suspension to be imposed for speeding at a exceptionally high rate, especially when a reckless driving is also issued. The point of all of this is that you definitely need to take advantage of a free consultation with a lawyer before attempting to deal with a traffic offense on your own.
