I am often asked why are there so many courts?

In NYC there are several different courts that handle traffic and driving related offenses.

Should I just plead guilty and accept the consequences?

Thats a really loaded question.

Everyone's situation is unique, and requires individual consideration.

Did you know that in NYS there are 2 laws that relate to using a cell phone and can result in a NY Cell Phone Ticket or NY Electronic Device Ticket ?

New York Cell Phone law prohibits driving while TALKING on a non hands-free cell phone while you are the driver of an in motion vehicle. The New York Electronic Device or New York Texting Ticket law prohibits driving while HOLDING most any portable electronic devices (cell phone, gps, iPod etc) while you are the driver of an in motion vehicle (Called the Portable Electronic Device Ticket Law, or Texting ticket law)
