New London is a ferry and seaport city, so many cited here are travelers passing through on I-95 or heading to the boats β with tickets heard right in town at New London Superior Court (GA10).
New London occupies a compact stretch of the west bank of the Thames River where it opens into Long Island Sound, and for a small city it has packed in an extraordinary amount of history. In the early nineteenth century it was the Whaling City β the third-busiest whaling port in the world, behind only New Bedford and Nantucket β and the fortunes brought home from the world’s oceans built the handsome houses and public buildings that still line its streets, including the famous row of whale-oil merchants’ homes downtown.
The sea has never let go of New London. The deep, protected harbor that drew the whalers later made the river a natural home for the Navy’s submarine force just upstream, and the city itself became the home of the United States Coast Guard Academy, established at Fort Trumbull and moved in 1931 to its campus overlooking the Thames, where the barque Eagle ties up. Add Connecticut College on the heights above the river and the old riverfront fort, and New London is a city defined by the water in nearly every direction.
That maritime character makes New London a place of constant comings and goings. The Cross Sound Ferry carries cars and passengers across the Sound to Orient Point on Long Island, and other boats run to Block Island and Fishers Island, so the city is forever full of travelers in transit. It is also a city of culture and memory: the playwright Eugene O’Neill grew up here, and his boyhood home, Monte Cristo Cottage, where he set some of his greatest plays, is preserved as a museum.
All of that movement concentrates on a small, busy road network. Interstate 95 crosses the Thames into the city on the towering Gold Star Bridge, Route 32 runs north along the river toward Norwich, and local roads funnel traffic to the ferry terminals. Many of the drivers cited here are travelers and ferry-goers rather than residents, and enforcement on these corridors is steady. We follow these roads and the equipment used along them, which is generally where the violations described below begin.

David Villa knows what itβs like when the government has a grip on your life β and heβs built his career standing between drivers and the power of the state.
People often ask him how he can defend those accused of breaking the law. His answer is simple: he's not defending the offense, he's defending a right.

Connecticut has two very different camera systems watching drivers. One mails you a $50 fine. The other, Flock, feeds police investigations. Here's how to tell them apart.
Read Article βYou're not required to hire one, but a ticket can carry more than a fine β points on your license and a possible insurance increase. An attorney who handles Connecticut traffic matters can review your options and frequently appear for you so you don't have to take time off, whether you live in New London or were just passing through.
Continuances buy time but don't resolve anything on their own. Pushing the case off again and again usually just stretches it out. It's generally better to have the ticket reviewed and a real strategy chosen.
New London cases are handled at New London Superior Court (GA10), the geographical-area courthouse located in the city, which also serves the surrounding southeastern communities.
For many traffic matters an attorney can appear at the New London courthouse on your behalf, so you may not need to attend yourself β useful if you don't live nearby. We can review your ticket and explain what your appearance would involve.
Depending on the violation and your record, a conviction can add points to your Connecticut license and may affect your insurance; out-of-state drivers may see it reported to their home state. How serious that is depends on the specifics, which is why it helps to review the ticket first.
