Legal Question in Traffic Law in New Jersey

Re: What rights do I have when caught speeding?

You don't have the right to see any radar printout at the time you are stopped. However, before your court date you can order the evidence in the case from the prosecutor's office. This is the evidence that the prosecutor wants to use against you. It may or may not show that the police had sufficeint evidence to issue the ticket against you. If you really want to fight this instead of trying to work out a plea bargain with the prosecutor, then I would suggest that you consult with a lawyer. I am a lawyer who has handled very many cases similar to yours in various courts throughout New Jersey in the past. If you would like to discuss your case in more detail please give me a cal at 908-272-0111. There is never any charge for simply discussing a case with me. Thank you.

Sincerely yours, -Ronald Aronds, Esq.-

Re: What rights do I have when caught speeding?

The defendant is entitled to discovery which is a copy of all police reports and records relating to his case, including records of the maintenance of the radar equipment and its use.

At the time of the stopping of your vehicle the officer was not required to give discovery or to show you anything. Of course, it would make you feel more confidence about the officer's truthfullness. In New York State dwi breathalyzers print out a reading in duplicate and the defendant is given a copy of same and that is a good practice which does not exist in New Jersey.

You can call me if you have more questions. If you want to hire an attorney I am available.
