Failure to Yield charges in New Jersey
Failure to yield is charged when you allegedly didn't give right-of-way where required — at intersections, to pedestrians, or when merging. These tickets are common after minor collisions where fault is disputed. In New Jersey, a conviction adds demerit points toward the New Jersey MVC suspension threshold of 12 points, and the conviction follows you to your insurer.
