Nobody likes New Jersey and now I got one more reason to add to the list.
From my last trim to NYC I got a ticket after I got back home saying I ran the EZ pass lane with my car.
Now normally I’d have no problem paying for things I’ve done, and you usually know when you ran through an EZ pass lane because you either don’t pay or don’t get a ticket stub for the next toll.
I’ve made sure I paid in every toll with my ticket stubs so this ticket coming in is ridiculous to begin with, I know I didn’t use the wrong lane, maybe somebody forgot to “OK” me when I went through and the cameras took my plate saying I had EZ pass :confused
I know out of state speeding tickets don’t transfer points but if you don’t pay them you’re in trouble.
If I don’t plan on visiting jersey any time soon, what’s the worst that can happen if I ignore the guilty before proven innocent notices?
It’s kind of the principle of the matter. That’s $30 dollars for something that I’m not guilty off. I got a no front plate ticket at the same day when the car was parked in the city, had no prob paying that.
They may have changed it, but I def got a ticket in Jersey that hit my license. Even if you don’t get points, they won’t let you have an EZ-Pass if thats not cleared up.
i did that on accident during my trip to waterfest. i just went thru an ez pass thing. 100% my fault. i get a picture with my car on it. so i call them and tell them that i did it accidentally and ill pay for the thing. they send me a bill with the photo for like 25 bucks. they asked if i had an ez pass, i said i dont(because i dont), so they said, just pay the fee for going thru and we will skip the other 20 odd dollar fine. they send me a new bill for like 74 cents or some shit. i mail out a check for a dollar, because my bank doesnt let me do less. some time later they send me a bill for like 30 something bucks. im like WTF, NJ? i overpay you and youre asking for more again? I call em up again and explain to them whats going on, again and they said theyll drop the additional fees. so then i get a paper in the mail that says im all paid up.
send them a check for whatever the toll was for and do not pay the fine. There should be a spot on the paper work to state your defense.
This happened to me 3 years ago. It happened at one of the many 35 cent tolls (maybe they are more expensive now) on the way to jersey and didn’t realize it was a EZpass lane til it was too later and I didn’t have EZpass . Got something in the mail and they charged me $25.35 (toll + fine). I Sent them a check for 35cents and said on the paper work that it was an accident and never had a problem. They cashed the check and I never heard back from them.
I borrowed my parents my spare tag when they went down to Philly (Garden State Parkway) to see my sister. Dad claims he didn’t do anything but he went through one of the lanes and didn’t have the tag up.
Anyway…got find $26.65. $25 is the fine, $1.65 is the toll.
When I went online to dispute, they just said if I add that car to the ‘policy’, they’ll waive the $25 fee.
If it’s like $30…just pay it man. Not worth it biting you in the ass later on.
