Can I Get Points On My Pa. Driver's License For a NJ Speeding Ticket?

Posted on July 9, 2008 by Tom Martin

Generally, if you have a Pennsylvania license and you are issued a speeding (N.J.S.A. 39:4-98) ticket in New Jersey,  the typical plea bargains to a "no point" ticket that benefit a NJ driver  will not benefit a Pennsylvania driver. In order for a licensed Pennsylvania driver to receive a "no point" ticket in NJ, they should seek to have their plea to the offense amended to a speed between 1 to 5 m.p.h. over the posted speed limit. See 75 Pa. C.S.A. 3362. 

By comparison, when a NJ licensed driver receives a speeding ticket  in Pennsylvania (or other State), he/she will only be assessed 2 points regardless of the speed.
