New Jersey A5244 mandates driver education and testing on responsibilities when approaching and passing slow moving vehicles.

New Jersey A5244 amends the state's driver education requirements to include curriculum guidelines for classroom courses, informational brochures for parents and guardians of beginning drivers, and the driver's manual. The bill mandates that these materials include information on a driver's responsibilities when approaching and passing slow moving vehicles. The written knowledge examination for a driving permit is expanded to include questions on the importance of operating a motor vehicle in a manner that safely shares the roadway with slow moving vehicles.
