What should I do if I received a Traffic Ticket?

If you received a traffic ticket in Hamburg, New Jersey, the first step is to carefully review the ticket to understand the violation, the date and location of the incident, and the deadline for your response. You must then decide whether to plead guilty or not guilty. Pleading guilty means paying the fine, but it may result in points on your driving record and potentially higher insurance premiums. If you believe you are not guilty or wish to challenge the ticket, you can plead not guilty and request a court hearing. It’s crucial to respond by the date indicated on the ticket, as ignoring it can lead to additional fines, a warrant for your arrest, or even a license suspension.
