The Garden State Parkway runs for 172 miles from the southern end to the northern end of the state. Due to the regularity of traffic on this roadway, it is closely watched for traffic violations. A common traffic violation on the Garden State Parkway is tailgating.
- The driver of a vehicle shall not follow another vehicle more closely than is reasonable and prudent, having due regard to the speed of the preceding vehicle and the traffic upon, and condition of, the highway.
- The driver of a motor truck when traveling upon a highway, outside of a business or residence district, shall not follow another motor truck within one hundred feet, but this shall not be construed to prevent one motor truck overtaking and passing another.
If you receive a ticket for tailgating on the Garden State Parkway, it is important to consult with a lawyer who is familiar with the laws and issues relevant to traffic violations in New Jersey. These penalties may include increased insurance costs and substantial fines.
