Garden State Parkway Roadside Assistance

Dial 833-GSP-4AID (833-477-4243)


If your vehicle becomes disabled:

  • Move your vehicle off the roadway to the shoulder on the right.
  • If you don’t have a cell phone, turn on your hazard lights and wait for a State Police patrol. If you have a white handkerchief or some other bright cloth, display it on the outside of your vehicle, on the side facing traffic, to signal that you are in need of assistance.
  • For your safety and the safety of others, do not attempt to flag down passing vehicles. Picking up or discharging persons on the Parkway is illegal.
  • Do not attempt to cross the highway. Do not walk along the shoulder.
  • If you want to make your own repairs, be mindful of the danger posed by the passing traffic. If possible, use cones, flares or reflective emergency signs.
