What is the name of your state? NJ
I was pulled over by a cop last week for failing to stop completely at a STOP sign before taking a right turn (I slowed down, looked over the street, saw no nearby vehicles and turned right slowly). He booked me under 39:4-215 (failure to obey sign) and told me that this violation does not get reported to DMV or insurance. I believe that there's no points on this violation. But knowing the insurance guys, they may get hold of the information from DMV and use it even if there are no points (the back of the ticket says that all records except for parking are sent to DMV). So can someone guide me as to whether this kind of violation actually gets into DMV records or does it just stay with the court? I am open to spending some money to ensure no record goes to DMV.
Is it ok if I just mail the fine and forget it, or do I have to go to court to ensure the report doesn't go to DMV?
Thanks
