court appearance is not required ...
basically if i plead guilty they want me to send in $85 bucks
if i plead not guilty i get to talk to teh prosecuter and then eventually the
judge....
my main ques is if makin a right from a straigh/left only lane is called improper
passing...cuz i don't want any points and i think he may have skewed the charge
for the most pointage...
but idk what else it would be called?

In Idaho it would have been titled "improper lane position for right turn", a $53.00 infraction. A passing violation is a totally different code violation, although still an infraction (at least in ID). I do not know NJ law. If it were in Idaho I would plead not guilty as per their code you did not commit the infraction.
A driver may be guilty of improper passing in one of several ways. First, if the defendant passes a vehicle proceeding in the opposite direction on the left rather than the right, the defendant commits the violation. If the driver passes a vehicle proceeding in the same direction on the right, the driver is also guilty of improper passing, unless the other vehicle is about to make a left turn or there are at least two lanes of traffic proceeding in that direction. A driver may not drive to the left of the center of the highway to pass a vehicle move in the same direction unless the left side is clearly visible and is free of oncoming traffic far enough ahead to permit safe passing. Finally, a driver must not cross a “No Passing” solid line on the highway unless directed to do so by a traffic or police office
thats the written law in NJ for improper passing, so i really dont see what you did wrong there
A driver is guilty of making an improper right turn if the approach for the right turn, or the turn itself is not made as close as practicable to the right curb, or edge of the roadway.
but there on the other hand, i can see what you did wrong, thats the written law for improper right or left turn (the shortened version)
The fines for this offense are between $52 and $202. Three points are assessed on a driver if they make an improper right or left hand turn.
Thats the fine.

well there is a box called improper passing that is not checked off
but down below in teh space provided the officer hand wrote improper
passing....
i think he was just a retarded individual and i will call on monday/tues
to verify just what the charge is and the associated fines/points...
dependin how bad it is i'll just pay the fine and call it a day as i was
going to take an advanced motorcycle course (for 75 bucks) anyway
that happens to count as a defensive driving course here in nj, an
automatic -2 points =]
so we shall see
its just a shame the cop was so brief with would have saved a lotta trouble
if he'd just explained things to me
