First and foremost, there are two sides to every story. From what I read in the original post, the gf got FOUR tickets, all of them MOVING VIOLATIONS. Reckless, speeding, driving on the left and failure to signal when pulling over. As a Sussex County resident, I know very well that Sparta is a HUGE motor vehicle town; it's pretty much all they do there. Still, for someone to write four MOVING violations, I can't help but think SOMETHING set this cop off. I don't know if it was her tone, attitude, I wasn't there. But he's definitely peeved to write that many movers.

I would suck it up and find a good (Notice I said 'good,' not 'ambulance chaser') attorney. Walk into court without one with that many expensive summonses and it'll end up costing more than the lawyer's fee. Those four, if not dismissed, are good for at least nine points. If he was p.o.'d enough to write that many summonses, then he'll be p.o.'d enough to push for guilty pleas for all of them.

I don't know enough to condemn the cop, but I do know enough that I don't speed in Sparta.
