What is the name of your state?NY
I was recently in New Jersey visiting a friend. When I returned to my car, which had been parked at a meter, there was a ticket written for 8:45 pm (despite that it was 8:30 as I was standing at my car) and the ticket said overdue meter (despite that the meter still had a half hour on it as I was standing there with the ticket). Clearly, the cop must have thought that I wouldn't make it back in time and that because I'm from NY, I wouldn't contest the ticket (which he was right about, I live over 2 hrs. away). Also, there's not much I can do, my word against his, therefore he wins. My question is that on the ticket my license plate number is written, but the state is not. Also, the make of my car is not written. Therefore, I'm wondering about the validity of the ticket. With the car type and state missing, is it still a valid ticket? Can they trace it to me? Thanks in advance for the info. |

| Again, that is not sufficient to void the ticket.
However, the two of them together would make it VERY hard (if possible) to even determine who you are if you were to 'no show' on the ticket. Quote: |

| As noted above, yes. Probably not.... at least not to be sufficient evidence to identify YOU or your car.

Why has he spent over $1.35M in legal fees to block disclosure... rather than spend $12 for a VALID birth cert to settle the matter? The 'certificate' he has presented doesn't qualify to get a drivers license, wouldn't allow a child to qualify for Little League, or for a real citizen to get a US passport!

| | | | Thanks for the info. I think I'm going to pay the ticket anyway, I'm not a big risk taker and the chance that they could trace me, makes me nervous. I'm just annoyed to be paying for something I didn't do. I'll suck it up as karma for any traffic laws I violated without repercussions in the past. Thanks again. |

| | | In the future, call the police department IMMEDIATELY and ask to speak to a supervisor.
If you're telling the truth that the citation was written for the future, that's unethical and the officer should be reprimanded for that. | |
