Marked crosswalk, vehicle stops.

Unmarked crosswalk, vehicle yields to pedestrians.

Anywhere else, pedestrian yields to vehicles.

>At Jersey unmarked corners, pedestrians must yield to vehicles

Vehicles are required to yield to pedestrians at both marked and unmarked crosswalks. Marked are self-explanatory, but an unmarked crosswalk is any intersection that doesn't have a sign that prohibits crossing.

We also don't have jaywalking laws per-se. You can cross outside of crosswalks/intersections (e.g. crossing in the middle of a 1 lane road), but the pedestrian is required to yield to vehicles and they can be ticketed for failure to yield.

How is it a joke? Plastic bags are an easy thing to eliminate and it has been successful so far.

It's a positive step forward and hopefully more will single use plastics will be eliminated in the future. It's just 1 example, but not long ago Costco stopped selling apples in a plastic clamshell and now use a cardboard box.

Plastic bags are banned for all businesses, including pizza and Chinese places. They're only allowed to provide paper bags.

>Starting May 4, 2022, New Jersey retail stores, grocery stores and food service businesses may not provide or sell single-use plastic carryout bags and polystyrene foam food service products. Single-use paper carryout bags are allowed to be provided or sold, except by grocery stores equal to or larger than 2500 square feet, which may only provide or sell reusable carryout bags.

The car has to be in a ready state to be able to pass. If you've cleared a code, it won't be ready until you complete a drive cycle. A scanner would tell you if the car is ready or not ready.

As for how to complete a drive cycle, that varies by manufacturer but generally you need to drive some number of miles at various speeds including highways speeds, stop and go, etc.

I've watched 1-3 a bunch of times and they're some of my favorite movies, I only watched 4 once and it was fine but haven't felt compelled to watch it again. The 5th one was absolutely awful though.

As long as you renew an NJ license on or after your 21st birthday, the license will be a normal horizontal license. I remember going to the DMV on my birthday to renew it when I turned 21 and it was indeed horizontal (back when they printed it on the spot).

Whether the paper temporary license receipt is valid out of state would really depend on whether or not New York recognizes it.

No it is not illegal.

You can also vote early in person up to 10 days before the election (though it's obviously too late for that now). I voted last week in the middle of the day, not a single person was there other than the election workers. Was in and out really quickly.
