New Jersey

The motorcyclist was doing 87 in a 40. NJ has very punitive licence suspensions that were historically hard to fully restore. Upto 1/4 of them all are suspended and include a gotcha where clearing all the financial requirements including paying to "lift" the suspension doesnt do it, there was a seperate unmentioned requirement to also pay to restore the "driving priledges". Reforms were implemented to narrow suspensions to driving offences and seperately they made speeding require a court appearance as even low points can create 3 years of insurance surcharges, even for out of state drivers. NJ was creating phantom licences for any out of state drivers, they wern't sending any notices to those out of state addresses. https://www.lsnj.org/KeyDevelopments/LicenseSuspension.aspx#:~:text=LSNJ%20%2D%20New%20Law%20Restricts%20Use,for%20Certain%20Crimes%20and%20Offenses&text=Governor%20Murphy%20recently%20signed%20into,%E2%80%9Cnon%2Dmoving%E2%80%9D%20offenses.

Just for perspective on how a poor family might try a move like this to avoid incarreration and retain employment.
