Mopeds To obtain a moped license you need to be at least 15 years old, have a Basic License, Moped License, and/or a motorcycle license. A moped driver may not go over 25 mph, and have the same driving responsibilities of other motorists.

Bikes, Skateboards, inline skates Bicycles, Skateboards, and Inline Skates New Jersey’s state law states that these riders have the same responsibility as the motorists on the road. Since these individuals are small in size, it may be hard to see them. A motorist should always leave plenty of room when following or passing a skateboarder, bicyclist or inline skaters.

Trains Railroad crossings can bring terrible situations. It is important to remember: If your vehicle is stuck on tracks, immediately get away from the tracks when a train is incoming. Trains move fast and cannot stop quickly. If the tracks are clear you much cross quickly to avoid getting stuck.

Motorcycles A Motorist's failure to detect and recognize motorcycles in traffic is the most common cause of motorcycle collisions you should always: Watch for motorcycles at intersections. always leave plenty of room between an automobile and motorcycle. Never follow a motorcycle too closely. Motorcycles can brake within a shorter distance than other types of vehicles.
