NJ Traffic Ticket Attorney

A driver may be guilty of improper passing in one of several ways. First, if the driver passes a vehicle proceeding in the opposite direction on the left rather than the right, the driver 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 officer.

DO NOT PASS:

• On a hill or a curve, or at any time sight lines are impeded.
• At a street crossing or intersection.
• At a railroad crossing.
• On narrow bridges, or in an underpass and tunnels.
• When a sign prohibits passing or center lines restrict passing.
• When behind a vehicle that has stopped to let a pedestrian cross.
