The Driving Record and the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission
The driving record is a separate document from the court file. It is kept by the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission, which adds each conviction the court reports and handles suspensions; the court does not issue driving records.
Paying a ticket is a conviction, reported to the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission like any other; contesting it means a plea of not guilty entered with the court by the date on the ticket.
A DWI is a criminal charge rather than a ticket, with its own license case before the Motor Vehicle Commission (see Collingswood DUI).
