A. 
The purpose of this section is to promote pedestrian safety (including those of minors), avoid life-threatening situations, and coordinate traffic control through the joint coordinated effort of the City's Police Department, Public Works Department and Board of Education. While there is a need to promote and protect child safety, the goal is not to punish children by subjecting them to a penalty of a fine, imprisonment or both, but to educate them so that they may become responsible citizens conducting themselves in a safe and orderly manner. This section is declared to be remedial and essential to the public interest, and it is intended that this section be liberally construed to effectuate the purposes as stated in this section.
B. 
Crossing streets, avenues and other roadways within the City. On streets, avenues and other roadways within the City where traffic is controlled by a traffic control signal or by police officers, traffic officers or school traffic guards, pedestrians shall not cross the roadway against the red or stop signal unless otherwise specifically directed to go by a police officer, traffic officer or school traffic guard or other traffic control device. Where traffic is not controlled and directed by either a police officer, traffic officer or school traffic guard, pedestrians shall cross the street, avenue or roadway within a crosswalk or, in the absence of a crosswalk, and where not otherwise prohibited, at right angles to the roadway. Where sidewalks are provided, it shall be unlawful for any pedestrian to walk along and upon an adjacent street, avenue and roadway.
C. 
Use of designated crosswalk. At intersections where traffic is directed by a police officer, traffic officer or school crossing guard, no pedestrian shall enter upon or cross the roadway at a point other than the crosswalk.
D. 
Driver to yield to pedestrians at crosswalk; exceptions. The operator of a vehicle shall yield the right-of-way to a pedestrian crossing the roadway within a marked crosswalk or within any unmarked crosswalk at an intersection, except at crosswalks when the movement of traffic is being regulated by police officers, traffic officers, school traffic guards or other traffic control signals, or where otherwise prohibited by state, county or other municipal regulations and codes. No pedestrian shall suddenly leave a curb or other place of safety and walk or run into the path of a vehicle which is so close that it is impossible for an operator to yield. Nothing contained within the provisions of this chapter shall relieve a pedestrian from using due care and caution for his safety. Every pedestrian upon a roadway at any point other than within a marked crosswalk or within a unmarked crosswalk at an intersection shall yield the right-of-way to all vehicles upon the roadway.
E. 
Penalties under this section shall be controlled by the provisions as provided for under § 260-12.
It is a violation of this chapter for any person to do any act forbidden or fail to perform any act required in this chapter.
[Amended 10-12-2010 by Ord. No. 22-2010]
Unless another penalty is expressly provided by New Jersey Statute, every person convicted of a violation of a provision of this chapter or any supplement thereto shall be liable to a penalty of not more than $54 or imprisonment for a term not exceeding 15 days, or both.
