Judge Can
Suspend DL for Willful Traffic Offense.
State v.
Moran 202 NJ 311 (2010)
The license suspension provision of N.J.S.A.
39:5-31, which is published in the Motor Vehicle Code of the New Jersey
Statutes Annotated, is not “hidden,” and defendant, like all motorists, is
presumed to know the law. To ensure that
license suspensions meted out pursuant to N.J.S.A. 39:5-31 are imposed
in a reasonably fair and uniform manner, so that similarly situated defendants
are treated similarly, the Court today defines the term “willful violation”
contained in N.J.S.A. 39:5-31 and enunciates sentencing standards to
guide municipal court and Law Division judges
Second or subsequent offense:
Fine or imprisonment not
exceeding 3 months, or both
$100 $500 plus court costs and possible non renewal by
car insurance
