This is a direct quote from the "State of NJ Driver Manual".

  Use parking lights only when you leave your car for a shoort time
  in a permitted zone.  Parking lights cannot be used alone when
  driving.

Now the last statement there certainly is not true.  Parking lights
CAN be used alone when driving.  I've seen thousands of cars, including
one police car yesterday, doing it.  Maybe the sentence should read
'Parking lights MUST not be ...'.  What I want to know is - Is it
ILLEGAL to drive with only your parking lights on?  If anyone has
access to the state of NJ motor vehicle legal codes, will you
please post the answer to this question?  Thanks in advance.
