The charge on your ticket sets the fine and the points added to your license. The NJ Motor Vehicle Commission tracks points from Brick Township and every other court in the state.

Here are some charges often found in Brick Township traffic court records:

• Careless driving: 2 points
• Reckless driving: 5 points
• Running a red light or stop sign: 2 points

DWI and DUI do not carry points in New Jersey. But they bring heavy fines and can cost you your license. Brick Township sees a high number of DWI cases each year due to its large size and busy roads.

You can cut two points by taking a state defensive driving course. One year with no new tickets earns a three-point credit.
