More details to this question:
I was hit broad side, no other cars involved. Witness and other driver claimed I ran red light. Damage is to the left rear side of my car. I've been advised to plead not guilty,but I'm unfamiliar with traffic court in Cape May Court House, NJ and am unaware of long term ramifications of this. The prosecutor will be at my hearing, which makes it all the more scary.

You have two issues. You have the charges in Municipal Court which must be addressed. The outcome in the court must be covered by a 'civil reservation' so that the outcome cannot be used against you in the civil case or by the insurance company. You can have a trial or you can negotiate a lesser charge in court if you have a great driving record and no one was badly hurt. Please call. Ed Dimon 732-797-1600
