COMMENTS
Considering the number of sessions for Teaneck traffic court, the police must be awful busy here.
ABOUT THE AREA
It is believed that Teaneck got it's name from the Native Indian word meaning 'place where there are woods'. This town which is now home to nearly 40,00 residents, was once a thickly wooded area. Today, Teaneck is a well-developed town with all facilities imaginable. It has a high-tech hospital, 'The Holy Name Hospital', a full-fledged university 'The Fairleigh Dickinson University', several public and private schools, shopping centers, parks, private gyms and other recreational centers. The present Municipal Government Complex is a Victorian mansion that was once upon a time the home of William Walter Phelps, a Teaneck resident. There are 5 historical homes in this town. The oldest one - the Brinkerhoff-Demarest House - is said to have been built in 1720s. The town also has an excellent public library system, which just recently started scanning magazines and other literature, to make them available online.

TYPE OF CASES
Two major highways, I-95 and Route 4, generate quite a bit of work on the Teaneck traffic Court calendar. Rumors of NY profiling are probably exaggerated.
