Cruising in the left lane is dangerous, annoying, and rude. It should be a traffic citation. I'd like to see more people get tickets for doing it. IMHO. Sorry

I think you missed the point MacCool, the cop pulled her over for doing like 5 over the speed limit. And gave her a different ticket.

So if she had a trash bag full of weed in the car and he pulled her over for speeding she should only get a ticket for the speeding? Is that your rationale?

I could not agree more.

tldr and semi-ot follows:
when MS state troopers first decided they would enforce this several years back (sadly enforcement has gotten lax again), there was a story on the news about a trooper cruising in the left lane of I-20 below the speed limit (obviously using radar on oncoming traffic). A vehicle in the right lane apparently became intimidated by his presence and slowed to match his speed, creating a rolling blockade on the highway.

A string of 8-10 vehicles pulled in behind the trooper in an effort to pass the vehicle in the right lane. The trooper pulled that entire queue over and ticketed each of them for driving in the left lane without passing. I don't know if any/all of those tickets were ever dismissed or not.

It's a crazy world on the highway.

No falcon.

She wasn't actually in the left lane.....the cop pulled her over for going over 5miles on the speed limit, Told her he would give her a pointless ticket worth 85 dollars but actually have her the failure to keep right one.

I thought I just read a post like 3 days ago that you got some sort of ticket...

It was for not getting my car inspected

if you're worried about the points, take it to court. every time ive done so, the judge threw out the points and only made me pay the fine. ymmv

I think that would make mom real gangsta.

OP get a lawyer. They can save you from points 90 percent of the time (at least that's been my experience)

-M-

Don't know rules in NJ, but in CA you can go to traffic school, pay the ticket and traffic school fee and there are no points and insurance is not affected. Probably much cheaper than getting a lawyer...if in fact NJ has this option. Good luck

Just plead not guilty and then talk to the D.A. See if you can pay the fine with deferred 30-90 days then get it dismissed. All these folks want is your money so offer them the money with no point assessment if you can. DO NOT PLEAD NO CONTEST OR GUILTY WITH AN EXPLANATION. YOU WILL BE FOUND GUILTY AND CANNOT GET OUT OF THE CITATION.
