Comments on: what’s likely to happen in court if given a speed ticket for doing 112 mph in a 65 mph in New jersey? http://taxlawyernyc.net/whats-likely-to-happen-in-court-if-given-a-speed-ticket-for-doing-112-mph-in-a-65-mph-in-new-jersey.htm Tax Attorney New York, Tax Lawyer New York Fri, 30 Jul 2010 07:11:24 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.7.1 hourly 1 By: Sean http://taxlawyernyc.net/whats-likely-to-happen-in-court-if-given-a-speed-ticket-for-doing-112-mph-in-a-65-mph-in-new-jersey.htm/comment-page-1#comment-8839 Sean Fri, 25 Dec 2009 02:26:51 +0000 http://taxlawyernyc.net/whats-likely-to-happen-in-court-if-given-a-speed-ticket-for-doing-112-mph-in-a-65-mph-in-new-jersey.htm#comment-8839 Well you will definitely lose your license for a while. And at this point they should, you don't need to be on the road. A police officer speed meter isn't always accurate but you must have been going pretty close to that number. Now if he said you was doing 70 mph in the 65 mph than you could have possible try to fight it. But you won't be able to fight this one. You can always get a lawyer but it will probably be a waste of your money. Now the defense attorney won't tell you that because he wants your money but I guarantee you, he or she won't make you any promises. There have been circumstances where the speed meter can give the wrong reading but since you were on the turnpike, that circumstances wouldn't be involved and you won't even be able to use it as a defense. I will not get into details with it because it is not needed. Next time slow down and do the speed limit, cops don't mind a few miles over but make sure you are not just passing traffic because than that would be obvious. Another note, speeding only gets you to your destination only a couple of seconds faster. Those couple seconds isn't worth the lost of your life nor someone else on the road. States didn't make speed limits to make people life miserable, they did it to protect. Well you will definitely lose your license for a while.

You'll probably have your license suspended and look at a driving to endanger charge. Don’t bother with an attorney…you’ll lose.

You might be able to change the suspension with a mandated driver course, that is up to the judge. I managed to avoid the suspension with the course. Good Luck.
