Legal Question in Traffic Law in New Jersey

Re: Reckless Driving

while it is a lot better than a DWI, your son really should consult a local attorney (get a local attorney) who goes into that particular municipal court A LOT.

Re: Reckless Driving

Hi,

My office handles traffic matters. I would suggest you hire an attorney who will be able to help with the traffic ticket because reckless driving carries stiff penalties.

39:4-96. A person who is guilty of reckless driving and be punished by imprisonment in the county or municipal jail for a period of not more than 60 days, or by a fine of not less than $50.00 or more than $200.00, or both.

On a second or subsequent conviction he shall be punished by imprisonment for not more than three months, or by a fine of not less than $100 or more than $500, or both.

So, if your son is convicted, he could violate his probabtion if he goes to jail (I would need to see his conditions of probation).Please call my office if you would like to schedule an appointment. My contact information can be obtained from the links below. My consultations are free.

Disclaimer: you can not rely on the advice of an attorney given over the internet. The exact facts of your situation, including facts which you have not mentioned in your question, may completely change the result for your situation.

Re: Reckless Driving

Getting a reckless driving ticket will not violate your son's probation. However, a conviction for reckless driving will result in heavy fines, five points on his driver's license, potentially a loss of his driving priveleges (I saw someone in court this morning who had his license suspended for 30 days for reckless driving) and potentially some jail time. I would certainly advise him to get a lawyer to represent him in this case. I am an attorney who has handled many cases similar to your son's in various courts throughout New Jersey in the past. I would like to discuss this case with you in more detail. Please contact me at your convenience. I never charge for simply talking ot a person about their case. Thank you.

Sincerely yours, -Ronald Aronds, Esq.-
