I'm under 18 and I got a written warning for speeding. I'm wondering if anything gets sent in the mail (to my house) because I don't want my parents to find out. Obviously I'm going to be way more careful now and I won't speed. Also, although the officer told me it was a warning, he filled it out on a regular citation (ticket) sheet. He included a court code and also gave me an envelope. What are those two things for?

In Massachusetts, there is nothing sent in the mail; it's just logged into the computer under your name just incase you get pulled over again, the officer will be able to use that information in his decision to (probably write you up with a full blown ticket, if it hadn't been that long since your warning.) However, the laws do change sometimes... but I'm not a cop; and hopefully you'll hear from someone in NJ.

SINCE IT WAS A WARNING IT IS JUST THAT BUT A WARNING IS GOOD FOR 3-6 MONTHS AND CAN BE BROUGHT BACK AS A CHARGE IF FOUND GUILTY OF SPEEDING WITHIN THAT TIME.
THE ENVELOPE AND THE CITATION ARE FOR YOUR KEEPING-I WOULD WRITE TO THE JUDGE AND THANK THE OFFICER FOR LETTING YOU HAVE A WAKE UP AND A WARNING TICKET FOR YOUR FIRST??VIOLATION.
SEE NOT ALL OF US ARE TICKET HAPPY WRITERS LOOKING TO MAKE MONEY FOR THE COFFERS OF THE DEPARTMENT AND THE COURTS
