Major metropolitan areas, including Newark, Jersey City, and Paterson, experience high accident volumes due to urban traffic density. Meanwhile, counties such as Bergen, Essex, Middlesex, Hudson, and Monmouth see significant crash activity on both local roads and major highways. The state’s numerous bridges, tunnels, and complex highway interchanges also present additional challenges for drivers.
