Re: Passing thru NJ?
rt209 is the last veritcal before you hit the border.
i'd sooner drive dead on the speed limit through the federal park than cross to NJ.
i live along the murky river, there's always a way to easily avoid the eastern bank.
simply, the river is there for a reason. the bridges are an affront to god and there is absolutely no reason to cross.There is no way to make it out alive...

Re: Passing thru NJ?
I agree! I've driven just about everywhere in PA. and I can't think of any route from one part of PA to another that you would have to go through New Jersey. The worst trip I made through PA was when my father who was very geographically challenged kept on me to take my brother back to college when I left Erie for Endicott, NY. We left at 4 PM for Waynesburg College, I dropped him off, headed east on the Turnpike, then up I-81 to Binghamton, NY, then back west on 17 to Endicott. I made it in time to stop home, change and go to work.
Oh, this was before I-79 was completed, too. I usually drove NY 17 to Endicott from Erie, before the Southern Tier Expressway was built,
and also took Rt. 6 a few times. Also went to Hershey, Harrisburg, Lancaster, Philadelphia, Chambersburg all several times and drove the length of I-80. I never went through New Jersey once.

Re: Passing thru NJ?
As a strictly theoretical discussion, if someone had a firearm, loaded or not, large mag or not, hollow points or not, in a locked briefcase on the front seat and were pulled over in NJ for a traffic violation, could the LEO legally search the locked briefcase without the person's permission? Assuming no RAS, PC etc. And if the LEO made up a bs reason for the search and discovered the firearm, would the discovery be admissible in court? Not recommending this course of action, of course, just questioning how this would play out legally.

Re: Passing thru NJ?
25 seems pretty straightforward.
Can I travel through New Jersey with my firearms?
Yes. With no unreasonable deviations from your travels you may drive through New Jersey with any type firearm or ammunition. If New Jersey is the State of destination, then the firearms must be legal in this State.
Probable cause?
'That looks like a gun case right there on your seat...'
I'd say largely NO though, but you could end up with a legal battle depending on several factors.

Re: Passing thru NJ?
Problem with NJ is the PD is going to let it be decided by the judge so IF it is seen/found, you WILL face a substantial delay getting back to your intended destination
