The New Jersey Driver Manual Chapter 10 Essential Driver Information

Traffic Signs, Signals, and Road Markings During heavy traffic or in an emergency, a police officer may direct traffic A police officer can overrule traffic signals Law enforcement orders/directions must always be obeyed Example: a person may drive on public or private property to avoid a traffic sign or signal when directed to do so by a police officer. Page 168

Traffic Signals When traffic signals are hung horizontally, red is always on the left Page 168

Right on Red If not prohibited by a “no turn on red” sign, NJ law permits you to turn on red after making a full stop and checking traffic and pedestrians.

Flashing Lights Flashing Yellow- slow down and proceed with care Flashing Red- stop. Stop, proceed with caution. Page 169

Traffic Signs Signs are divided into 3 basic categories: Warning: warn motorists of hazards ahead that are difficult to see Guidance: guide motorists to a destination by clearly identifying the route Regulatory: regulate traffic speed and movement Page 169

Warning Signs Yellow and diamond-shaped with a black symbol or word message Page 170

Warning Signs (cont.) Example: Roadwork Signs Diamond shaped sign Page 170

Guidance Signs Identify destination and routes for motorists Page 171

Regulatory Signs Generally rectangular, with longer vertical dimension, and have black wording and borders on a white background Page 171

Examples: Yield sign- Triangular shaped sign School Area- Pentagon shaped sign

Road Markings Road Markings have the same force of law as signs or traffic signals Yellow center lines: separate traffic flow going in opposite directions White lines: separate traffic going the same way when there is more than one lane show edges of roads Dashed lines: passing is permitted when safe Solid line: do not pass Page 171

Crossing center lines on a two-way roadway for passing is legal when? The broken line is one your side of the highway.
