Practice who goes first at intersections, crosswalks and roundabouts: 33 questions based on the New Jersey Driver Manual, 15 of them on New Jersey's own rules.
For a pedestrian in a crosswalk you must come to a full stop and stay stopped until the person has cleared your lane and the next lane going your way. Chapter 4, Pedestrians in a Crosswalk, p. 66
Failing to stop for a pedestrian is punishable by a fine as high as $500, a jail term of 25 days or less, community service, a suspension of six months or less and two points. Chapter 4, Pedestrians in a Crosswalk, p. 66
On a two-lane road, or a multi-lane road with lanes divided only by lines, you must stop at least 25 feet from a school bus with flashing red lights. Chapter 4, Stop for School Buses, p. 77
On a dual highway, a driver on the far side of a safety island or raised median slows to 10 mph when a school bus is stopped. Chapter 4, Stop for School Buses, p. 77
When a school bus is loading or unloading directly in front of a school, you may pass it from either direction at 10 mph or less. Chapter 4, Stop for School Buses, p. 77
Sample Right-of-Way questions
You are unsure who has the right-of-way in a New Jersey traffic circle. Which basic rule applies?
The larger vehicle goes first
The faster vehicle goes first
The vehicle on the right yields to the one on the left
The vehicle on the left yields to the one on the right
Show the answer
The vehicle on the left yields to the one on the right
New Jersey has no set circle rules, so fall back on the uncontrolled intersection rule: left yields to right.
