IF YOU HAVE BEEN CHARGED WITH A TAILGATING
TICKET YOU WILL GET 5 POINTS ON YOUR LICENSE

Tailgating also known as Following to Closely is a serious offense in the State of New Jersey and
carries 5 points.  In addition to points you could also receive up to 15 days in jail.  (note that unless
your offense involves an accident it is very rare but possible for a judge to impose jail).  

The Points associated with this ticket can easily cost you thousands of dollars on your insurance.  
For Insurance purposes it takes 3 years from the date of your violation/conviction for the points to
be eliminated off your insurance.  The five points associated with this offense are equivalent to the
points in 2 and 1/2 red light or stop sign violation tickets.

In addition to possible jail the judge does have the discretion to suspend your license.  If you lose
your license you could lose your job, your house and all that is important to you!  Don't go it alone

consultation to find out how we can possibly help you reduce or eliminate these penalties.
