Your Middlesex County Speeding Ticket Defense

Attacking every aspect of the police officer’s case on behalf of our clients in Middlesex County

Speeding tickets can cost a fortune. The penalties for speeding ticket convictions extend beyond the face amount of the fine. Speeding means points on your driving record. If you get too many points, your driver’s license could be suspended. If your license is suspended, you may lose your job. Your insurance carrier will also learn of your points and conviction. They will likely raise your premiums for at least three years. You may also face surcharges if you accumulate too many points, which you will have to pay for several years. These costs can only worsen if you are charged with additional traffic offenses.

Review the New Jersey point schedule

Our Middlesex County criminal defense lawyers employ various strategies to get your charges dismissed or reduced. We have been helping drivers fight traffic tickets for 60 years. At Aiello, Harris, Abate, Law Group PC, we understand that the prosecution has the burden of proving its case. Our lawyers hold the police and prosecution to this high standard. We also combine our ability to be aggressive with an ability to tactfully negotiate reasonable settlements that can reduce the severity of your speeding ticket.

Contesting Charges

When can an attorney contest a speeding ticket or ask for a dismissal of charges?

Just because a police officer says you were going 10 miles per hour, 20 mph, or any amount of miles over the speed limit, doesn’t mean that there aren’t defenses. Defendants have the right to challenge every aspect of the ticket. If there is a reasonable doubt that you were speeding, the traffic court judge should dismiss the case.

 

Case Study

Multiple Municipal Court Charges Dropped

The defendant was charged with several moving violations, including driving while intoxicated (D.W.I.) in violation of N.J.S.A. 39:4-50 and refusing to submit to a breath test in violation of N.J.S.A. 39:4-50.4a. The attorneys of Aiello, Harris, Abate Law Group PC filed a motion to dismiss the refusal for failing to inform the defendant of all penalties.

Some of the challenges our Middlesex traffic lawyers face to speeding tickets are

    • The radar gun wasn’t correctly calibrated within the proper time limits. Tests from radar guns that do not meet routine standards should be invalid.

    • The officer did not use the radar gun properly. The officer should be trained appropriately. If he was driving while he/she clocked you, that may affect the results.

    • Other cars were traveling near you. The speed of other vehicles may affect the accuracy of the test.

    • Weather conditions may have affected the results. Rain, wind, cold, or snow can affect the test results.

    • You have a good reason for driving at a high speed. Some valid reasons include a defective car part or a medical emergency. You may have justifiably sped to get out of the way of an oncoming car.

There are many other technical defenses to challenge speed guns that we also explore. Nearby buildings can also distort the reading.

We may also cross-examine the police officer. If we can show that the officer didn’t clock you for a sufficient amount of time or was distracted, we can cast doubt on the officer’s claim.

If the police have an airtight case, our lawyers still try to persuade the officer to reduce the speeding ticket to a less severe amount. For example, a reduction from 15 mph to 14 mph means fewer points on your driver’s record, lower fines, and, most likely, lower premiums.
