The ticket I am referring to is Leaving the Scene of an Accident, involving injury, pursuant to N.J.S.A. 39:4-129.

Third Cell Phone Ticket Amended to Delaying Traffic

Cell Phone Ticket License Suspension Since July 1, 2014, clients have been calling to obtain the services of my office for their cell phone violations. The reason why is because on July 1, 2014, the New Jersey Legislature amended the "hand-held portable electronic device" (i.e. cell phone) traffic violation.

This often comes as a surprise to many residents since, in the past, officers, prosecutors and judges have openly accepted these pleas without advice on enhancing penalties since none existed before 2014.
