DWI & Traffic
20 articles from Simon Law Group
Driving while intoxicated and serious traffic offenses are prosecuted in New Jersey municipal courts and carry license, fine, and ignition-interlock consequences under the state's DWI statute. These articles explain how breath and field-sobriety evidence is handled, how penalties scale with prior offenses, and the rights of a driver who is stopped. They are general information about New Jersey DWI and traffic law, not advice about a particular charge.
