Hi,
I got a NJ traffic ticket, 4-124, failure to turn. On a Friday evening with heavy traffic, I took the ramp to join the freeway and I was about to take a left turn but the car behind me occupied the space by taking a left turn and I had to go straight with little speed for a while waiting for that guy go past me and give me yield. Since ramp converted into a exit sooner than I expected, I had to drive a little into the marked course (white stripes at the intersection) to avoid an accident and finally join the freeway. The cop few hundred's feet in front of me, stopped me and gave a ticket.
Should I fight for this ticket? It is my first ticket and never had a traffic violation since I got the driver's license. Fine is $85 with 3 points, I am sure it would raise my insurance premium.
Please help me.
