No Points Offenses Eliminated For Young Drivers
As a result of a memorandum issued September 17, 2008, Anne Milgram, the Attorney General, has ordered that municipal prosecutors cannot offer or accept plea bargains which result in non-point violations for offenses involving defendants who have a graduated driver’s license (GDL). The logic behind the new plea bargaining bar stems from the mandatory driver improvement program that possessors of GDL's must attend upon receiving 3 or more penalty points. By receiving non-point downgrades, these drivers are able to avoid attending the driver improvement program.
