The driver, whose identity has not been released, also suffered serious injuries.
Pollitt, of Cranbury, is charged with one count of first-degree murder and two counts each of second- and third-degree aggravated assault and fourth-degree obstruction.
Police say the murder appears to be a random act, as Pollitt and the victims were unknown to each another.
