DWI in Bellville, NJ
If you are looking at a DWI conviction, the penalties are stiff, even for a first offense: hundreds of dollars in fines and associated fees and costs, license forfeiture, higher insurance premiums, and even possible incarceration for up to 30 days. If your BAC is over 0.10, you face more penalties, might need to perform community service and install an ignition interlock device in your vehicle, even though you are not legally allowed to drive. Make no mistake, a NJ DUI conviction is costly and impacts your life for a long time. The decision to invest in the counsel of a skilled DWI Defense lawyer is a wise one.
About Belleville, New Jersey
Belleville is an Essex County township with a population the 2010 Census placed at close to 36,000. Newark and several large urban areas are located close by, and drivers use many main roadways, such as Route 7 and Route 21, regularly to access them. This heightens the amount of vehicle stops in the area, which leads to a number of DWI/DUI arrests. The Belleville Municipal Court, located on Washington Avenue, typically hears these cases. Last year, about 90 DUI charges were filed by the Belleville police force. There was one fatal motor vehicle accident in Belleville involving a drunk driver in 2011, and two in 2009.
