Business Tips
 Traffic Ticket TipsWith
the summer season comes increased driving. If you happen to get
pulled
over, keep the following in mind: 1. You must have your license, registration and insurance card
with you
at all times. If you don't, it's a $180.00 fine, per missing
document. 2. Don't argue with the police officer; you won't win the
argument, at
least not then and there. 3. If you get a ticket (or several), many carry DMV points or a
possible
license suspension. An attorney can appear in court with you to
reduce
the points, fines or avoid suspension. Remember-
I have represented people who have gotten into much worse trouble than
you -
so helping you will be easy! Email Sebastian Ferrantell Esq.,or call (732)
943-6047.
Important Tip: To remove a broken bulb from the socket, press a
potato against the broken bulb and turn.
More Important Tip: Make sure the power is off if you do not want
your potato cooked!
