Yield To Pedestrians: Its The Law

Blogger Where Is The Remote? was nearly killed while crossing the street. We'd like to remind everyone that in New Jersey, drivers must yield to pedestrians in crosswalks. There are three specific statutes, each worth 2 points on your license:


N.J.S.A. 39:4-35 Failure to yield to pedestrian in crosswalk

N.J.S.A. 39:4-36 Failure to yield to pedestrian in crosswalk; Passing a vehicle yielding to pedestrian in crosswalk

N.J.S.A. 39:4-66.1 Failure to yield to pedestrians or vehicles while entering or leaving highway
