 Subject: Need Advice ASAP
IP: Logged
Message:
A week ago I was visiting my girlfriend in North Jersey, I am from South Jersey. While up there I was pulled up to a stop steet and stopped, since there were cars parked on both sides of the road I couldn't see much, so I pulled forward. As I entered the intersection I could see a car coming but I was already to far up so I went through. The other car was still a good 30 feet from me in a 25mph zone so there wasn't a threat of an accident. However, the car follows me and I notice that it has four highschool aged girls in it who are writing down my information. I didn't think much of it until I got a ticket in the mail yesterday for failure to stop at a stop sign. Here is where I need help, I just got hired for a new job, and can't really afford to miss a day of work for my required May 20th court date. I also can't believe that I can get a ticket sent to me based on what another driver says, and what if I wasn't even the person driving, what would happen then. I can't afford to pay the ticket, and also have my insurance go up because of points caused by a moving violation. Does anyone have any advice. I would really appreciate it.

Defintiely fight it. Who was the reporting officer on this moving
violation? Citizens don't write tickets based on what they saw.
What are the laws in your area regarding this? This wouldn't fly
in California. What were these girls daughters of the police chief
or something? You have to go to court and fight it if you want
any chance of not paying the fine. See if they have night court
or any accommodations for those who can't attend during
regular business hours. That's about all you can do. This all
seems highly bogus to me and not legal.

That is what I thought too, these girls must have gone to the police station and filed a report, on the ticket it had the one girls signature under "complaining witness" how can a regular citizen get someone written up for a traffic violation when there was no office near by. That is my biggest problem with the whole thing
