 Bring your moolah! by VeronicaG
The Garden State Parkway, which is a main artery, requires $.25 and $.35 tolls. Most of the time there will be at least one toll booth that has an attendant who will give you change if necessary--it is indicated by a non-blinking green light.
Toll booths requiring the correct change have blinking green lights. However, there are toll booths on exits that are not manned where you need the exact change. Welcome to New Jersey!

The hardest thing to get used to after moving to New Jersey, was the infamous jug handle. For those of you who are unacquainted with this highway feature--it is used when you are not permitted to make a left turn. In order to do so, you must find a place indicated for making U-Turns and veer off to the right. The turn loops around so that you are then in a position to go left. CRAZY!!
Don't worry, though, not all roads prohibit left turns. Just be prepared when you see a sign indicating that this is the case.

 A bane to out-of-state drivers by b1bobLeave a Comment

Perhaps it's just because so many people have populated the area for so long that the roads weren't planned far enough in advance, but I've noticed that there are too many places where lanes end suddenly without warning, or where merging into traffic is necessary but next to impossible to do (like on Route 22). Also, the drivers here are a bit more agressive and impatient than anywhere else that I've seen. They'll pass you in a second if you're in their way!!!! Leave a Comment

Drive carefully. Wear your seat belts at all times. NJ drivers can be aggressive at times and rude I'm sorry to say. If you are driving along route 322 DON'T EXCEED THE SPEED LIMITS. I believe some smaller local municipalities just about fund their police departments on their speeding ticket incomes,epecially in Harrison, Elk and East Greenwich Townships.N.J. road signs are above average compared to other states I've been to, but the sheer volume of drivers on the road make it tricky to gety on and off of major roads such as I-295, Rt.42,Rt.55.Go alittle slower in the right lane, put up with the occasional merging traffic and you'll probably do fine with regard to exiting these roads. A word on behalf of our local police.For the most part they are very courteous and professional, especially the State Police.There is a very controversial issue going on regarding the State Police and an apparent racial profiling of people of color.Not being a person of color, I cannot say that profiling does or does not exist, but if you are a person of color traveling in New Jersey, be aware and be polite for your own sake.

Tony Soprano's magnificent house is in North Caldwell. We all know it also features New Jersey's most famous backyard. Some of the opening credits are shot nearby on Mountain Avenue. Neighbors of the house don't mind the filming because they leave the place cleaner. Leave a Comment
