    Hey guys, just received a New York City bus lane ticket on W. Broadway.

    To be straightforward it was me and two other vehicles that got nabbed at about 7:15 a.m. I didn't even know there was this kind of enforcement, particularly when no busses are to be found.

    Guess I know now!

    That said, if anyone has any very good attorneys in New York City, I would greatly appreciate any guidance on who's the best without bleeding me dry so I can avoid a moving violation on my record.

    This city can be such a joke sometimes...

    Second for Casey, I am in the same Ducati club and used him last year with excellent results.

    Its no moving violation.. Its just a ticket with no points.. They cant prove who was driving.. You got the ticket because the car is registered to you.. Pay it for forget about it..

    If only that was true.

    This isn't your ordinary bus lane camera ticket.

    There was a physical officer in the middle of the lane who flagged two others + me over.

    Unfortunately, there are points associated with this.

    Easiest thing is to go to court. Talk to the prosecutor and tell him/her that you are willing to plead guilty to a similar fine with no points. For the prosecutor it's pretty much a no brainer deal to make.

    No such option in the NYC DMV-run traffic court system.

    Wow, just read all about the system in NYC. Makes me thankful to live in NJ for once. ;)

    Best of luck.
