If you think alcohol and driving don’t mix, try voice command behind the wheel on a New Jersey highway sometime.
The more you drive in New Jersey, the more likely you are to waste a good portion of your life.
Excruciatingly painful, chronic-crawling, mind-numbing traffic awaits us at every turn. Doing 65 one minute; sitting in a sea of red lights for the next hour. No escaping traffic in our state
Whether you are parking, spot hunting along the strip in Pt. Pleasant on a Saturday in July, commuting down Route 15 south in the morning from Sussex County onto Route 80, cutting through Newark any day from 4 pm to 6 pm on McCarter Highway in Newark, or praying for a miracle on Route 17 on any day but Sunday, we are regular prisoners of the road.
