Common Traffic ViolationsWhen you get a traffic ticket, your initial reaction might be to pay the fine right away. While that may seem like the easiest solution, it could lead to license suspension, surcharges, and increased insurance premiums later on.
In Hardyston, New Jersey, several common traffic violations can lead to tickets and penalties. Speeding is one of the most frequent offenses, where drivers exceed the posted speed limits. Running red lights or stop signs is another common infraction, which can be dangerous and often results in fines. Reckless driving, defined as operating a vehicle in a way that endangers others, is also a serious violation. Additionally, driving under the influence (DUI) or driving while intoxicated (DWI) is a major offense with severe consequences such as fines, license suspension, and even jail time.
Other violations include improper passing, where drivers pass unsafely or in restricted areas, and failure to yield, which occurs when a driver doesn’t give the right-of-way to other vehicles or pedestrians. Driving without insurance or with a suspended license is also illegal in New Jersey and can lead to substantial penalties. Furthermore, distracted driving, such as texting or using a handheld device while operating a vehicle, is strictly prohibited. Tailgating, or following another car too closely, is another common infraction, as is failure to wear a seatbelt, which is mandatory for all passengers. These violations can result in fines, points on your driving record, and higher insurance premiums.
Penalties For Traffic ViolationsTraffic tickets can lead to a range of penalties depending on the violation and its severity. Fines are the most common consequence, with the amount varying based on the specific offense. In addition to fines, many violations result in points being added to your driving record. Accumulating too many points can lead to license suspension, which restricts your ability to legally drive. For serious offenses like DUI or reckless driving, penalties may also include jail time. Insurance rates often increase after receiving traffic tickets, especially if points are added to your record. Additionally, some violations, such as driving without insurance or with a suspended license, can lead to surcharges and mandatory court appearances. In certain cases, you may also be required to attend traffic school or complete community service as part of the penalty.
