[QUOTE="testorossa1989, post: 12377600, member: 122681"] Oh joy a fellow New Yorker. I got so many tickets in NY lol i have my own lawyer on speed dial. For you always plea not guilty. In NY STATE 3 things can happen, depending on your township. A) the DA rules, You plea not guilty and show up. You will likely sit down with the DA (district attourney) depending if he or she is in a good mood they will try to work out a PLEA BARGAIN, Example: You get unsafe start (2points) well the DA says hey this kids new no bad history, What would you say to plea of guilt to a 2381 B2 (Blowing a stop sign) you say sure. Then you go before the judge. The judge will say how to you plea to the new charge.. Guilty (Means you accept new charge and pay it) not guilty (YOU DONT ACCEPT IT) Then you go to trial and need a lawyer B) The COP comes to court. If you got pinched by a trooper they are NOT obligated to show up to court. This matter will be handled by a DA then in court, Sometimes a trooper will show up but often not. This means if hes anyone OTHER than a trooper I.E sherrif, town, city cop then the cop will showup to court. He may work out a lesser fine for you and pulls you aside before court.
