39:4-44. Car stops

Every street railway company may establish certain road intersections, street crossings or other points along its railway as regular stops, and unless otherwise ordered by the board of public utility commissioners, or by the board or body having charge of streets in a municipality it shall not be necessary for the railway company to stop its cars for the purpose of taking on or letting off passengers at any place other than at the established stops.

When the established stops are at road intersections or street crossings, the near side of the intersection or crossing shall be designated as the established stop, except that, at special intersections or crossings or under special conditions where in the judgment of the street railway company, the board of public utility commissioners or the local authorities, the convenience or safety of the public will be better served, the far side may be designated as the established stop.
