About this guide

Gloucester County, New Jersey, has about 312,000 residents (2024 Census Bureau estimate). A traffic ticket written in Gloucester County is a court case in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Gloucester County; a city with a municipal court tries its own, and the conviction it ends in goes on the driving record kept by the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission. This guide says which court takes the ticket, who writes them and where the driving record lives.

Who Writes the Tickets in Gloucester County

The Gloucester County Sheriff's Office and the agencies that report for Glassboro, Woodbury, Clayton, Pitman, Paulsboro, Westville and five more cities write the traffic tickets in Gloucester County.

The FBI's agency list also places these agencies in Gloucester County: Rowan University (campus police); Prosecutor in Gloucester County (other agency); the Gloucester County State Police (state police); the Gloucester County State Police writes the tickets on the state highways.

The Driving Record and the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission

Convictions are reported by the court to the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission, which keeps the driving record and decides on points and suspensions. Order the driving record from that agency, not from the court.

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 Gloucester County DUI).
