On the roads, multiple accidents near the Lincoln Tunnel created severe traffic jams. A motorcycle crash at 4:00 a.m. in the center tube halted outbound traffic for hours. Traffic was made worse by the rerouting of incoming cars. Major collisions involving flipped automobiles and ambulances caused Route 3 in East Rutherford to close in both directions.

Travel times stretched significantly, with some drivers reporting up to four-hour trips that usually took under 30 minutes. NJ Transit cross-honored bus tickets and rerouted services, but delays of up to 60 minutes persisted.

This chaotic morning underscored the vulnerability of New Jersey’s aging infrastructure and highlighted the need for investment and better crisis management.
