I was in Philadelphia and recieved a traffic ticket for not using a turn signal, which was a BS ticket anyway. I was profiled for driving a Honda to close to the races area when in fact I was dropping a friend off at his house. Anyhow, I admit I didnt signal , but I was in a right hand turn only lane that was sort of like an off ramp anyway. I could only go one way.

My first question is, is this a moving violation and will I recieve points for it?

Second question is, this happened April of 2002. Yea, 3 years ago and they finally sent me a letter saying if I dont pay I will have a warrent out. I went to the court house a few days after I recieved the ticket attempting to schedule a court date, but they never sent me one. Now 3 years later they send this BS.

What should I do? Is there a statue of limitation for how long its been? What can I plee to avoid the points?

 

Call the courhouse and ask. By the way I hope more people get ticketed for not signaling, pisses me off like no other.

 

I got a ticket for not using a turn signal. It got thrown out because I didn't use it since there were no cars around when I turned, hence common sense wise it wasn't needed. Glad the judge actually used common sense instead of being a robot.

It's probably all gonna depend on the judge.

 

If you show in in court in Philly and are corteous and polite you could get out of it. In Philly nothing bad can happen by going to court ( unlike some suburbs)

 

If you have a NJ driver license, the points from PA wouldn't transfer. I would just pay the fine and move on.

 

Everyone else said that 2 points will transfer over from PA.

 

The tickets for "Signal Improper" violation 3334b. I cant find any info on it. I need to know if its going to have points.

 

Out of state moving violations are 2 points for NJ. Failure to signal is a moving violation. So, you will receive 2 points. PA will tell NJ. If you are lucky enough to have a PA license, and receive an out of state violation, no points. PA does not care, but NJ does. Go figure. Anyway, try to go to court and fight it. Good luck.

 

I finally got in touch with PA court system by phone. For some reason its not a moving violation so go figure, Im not complaining though.

 

run!
