Be glad you can clear your record that easy. In NJ it just goes on your record and if you get over a certain number of points witch a 15 MPH ticket would be a 4 or 6 point ticket. In addition to the fine if you get over 6 points you get slapped with a 3 YEAR insurance surcharge. I got hit with this a few years ago and the cost of a couple of speeding tickets cost me over $ 1000 just for the surcharge. Tends to make you slow down.
And tickets from Pa or NY count in NJ, too.
I really see no harm in speeding when conditions permit - within say 15 MPH - clear roads, an interstate, etc., the illusion that it's for safety is bogus - it's for revenue. There should be more tickets for not signaling.
