Watch For Snow Accumulating On LED Traffic Signals.  Unlike Incandescent Bulbs That Run Hot and Melt Snow, LED Lights Operate Cooler And Will Not Melt snow.


Current law holds motorists responsible if ice or snow dislodges from their vehicle and causes injury or property damage to another.  Note that the new law requiring motorists to remove snow from their vehicle does not take effect until October 2010.

REAR SEAT PASSENGERS MUST BUCKLE UP:  Taking effect immediately and requires all rear seat passengers, 18 years of age or older, in a passenger car, van, pick-up truck, or utility vehicle to wear a safety belt system. It is enforceable under 39:3-76.2f).1, as a secondary offense meaning you can only cite a driver who has been detained for a violation of Title 39 of the Revised Statutes or other law. 

IGNITION INTERLOCK:  Law requires first offenders and people convicted for refusal to use an interlock device (NJSA 39:4-50.16) and permits judges to order either use of an interlock system or the suspension of defendant's registration privileges.  Use of the device on vehicles principally driven by the offender is mandatory for refusal violations and for defendants with a BAC of 0.15% or greater.
