Most places toll the statute of limitations once charges have been filed. It is presumed that the reason the person can't be found is that they are hiding because of the crime. That means they know they did something wrong and that they are wanted.

What is the statute of limitations on a traffic violation in Pennsylvania?

Generally, you can be cited or arrested for a misdemeanor or other low-grade offense within a year of the act. However, if you have already been issued a citation, the statute of limitations stopped running when the ticket was issued. If you didn't appear in court for the citation, it's likely that an arrest warrant has been issued for you. Arrest warrants have no statute of limitations. They are valid until served or recalled.

If a person was charged with a crime in New jersey but never arrested are the charges dropped after a certain period of time?

There are statutes of limitation on crimes in many (but not all) states. CAUTION: In some states, if the defendant flees out of state, the statute of limitation stops running, meaning - that the time starts again and can be charged if the defendant ever returns to the state. You must do some research to learn if the crime you were charged with has a limitation in NJ.
