STATE POLICE - NJ TICKETING
Here's the latest NJ State Police Initiative (Radio Station 101.5 FM
confirmed this info).
Starting today y, New Jersey will launch a 30-day speeding ticket
frenzy. The state estimates that 9 million dollars will be generated
in speeding tickets. One million dollars will go to pay state
troopers over-time.
There will be 50 state troopers on duty at all times patrolling the
9 main intersections and highways as follows:
I-295 North and South,
I-95 Jersey Turnpike North and South
I-80 East and West
I-287 North and South
I-78 East and West
I-195 East and West
I-280 East and West
Route 130 - North and South
Garden State Parkway - North and South
5 MPH above the limit can justify a ticket and every state trooper
is supposed to pull a car over and
write a ticket every 10 to 20 minutes.
They have issued 30 brand new unmarked Crown Victoria cruisers and
are bringing in all of their part-timers on full time. If you work
in NJ, NY, DE or CT, you will probably be on one o f these highways.
So, please be on guard and drive safely!
Starting August 15 , the price of a violation to show your driver's
license, registration or insurance card at the time you are
stopped , increased from $44.00 to $173.00. (Keep these documents in
your car) . And the fine for not having all three documents is
$519.00!
The fine for hand-held cell phone use while driving will be going up
to $180.00.
Please forward this to people in N.J. and let them know of this
latest Police Initiative.
