Improper Turn charges in New Jersey
An improper turn covers turning from the wrong lane, without signaling, or against posted restrictions. It is a catch-all maneuver violation that is often subjective. 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.
