What is the name of your state? Massachusetts
Hi, My Name is Mike, i hold a New Jersey driving license and my car is registered in Massachusetts. I was stopped yesterday for red light violation(89:9) and fined 150$. This is the first time i was ever pulled over. The officer took my license and registration and went back to his car and came back with the $150 fine. I didnot get a chance to explain or even speak to the officer. My question is will i reveive any points for this offence? if yes, since i have a out of state license will the points be transferred to NJ and show up on my driving history? please remember that my car is registered in MA. Secondly, i drove past the traffic light when it was orange and i also tried to stop the car but then realised that if i stopped i would be in the middle of the crossroad so i didnot stop and went on only to be pulled over. i have a colleague who was with me witnessing all this. Now, if i request for a hearing and explain the same, will i be off the hook? or if i loose the case in the hearing what are the consequenses? will the fine/points be doubled? Please advise.
