Legal Question in Traffic Law in New Jersey
How far down can a Prosecutor knock down a speeding ticket?
Got caught doing 90 in a 65 on GSP in Homldel. I admit I was speeding, but don't think I was doing 90. I'm ready to plead guilty, but not to this speed. I know I need professional help on this, but even then, how far down can I expect the the speed to be knocked down. 79 would make it a 2 point hit. Is that possible?
Also, does the Trooper need to agree to to any plea reduction or is it solely up to the Prosecutor? Just curious?

Depending on the evidence and the circumstances the ticket may be reduced to a lesser fine and points. Perhaps there is an issue with the radar, etc. The trooper does need to consent to any reduction. If you would like to discuss this matter further call me at 732-286-2170.

Two points is definitely doable. The trooper must agree with any deal. You might call and discuss any defense you might have.

Re: How far down can a Prosecutor knock down a speeding ticket?
If the prosecutor is willing and the trooper consents, the ticket can be changed from a four point speeding ticket to a 2 point speeding ticket. 90 is a pretty fast speed, so you may have some trouble getting them to agree to changing your ticket. Also, they need to prove their case so you may want to hire a lawyer to review the evidence they have against you. I handle traffic ticket cases as the bulk of my workload. If you would like to discuss your case further please call me at 908-272-0111. There is never any charge for simply talking to me. Thank you. Sincerely yours, -Ronald Aronds, Esq.-
