NJ Governor Signs Snow & Ice Bill into Law
Thursday, October 22, 2009 On October 20th, Governor Corzine signed (S520/A1718) the Snow and Ice Removal bill into law. The new law requires a "reasonable attempt" (what is reasonable has yet to be defined) be made to remove snow and ice from ALL vehicles including commercial trucks following a snow storm.. While unsuccessful in stopping the bill NJMTA was able to get many amendments to minimize the impact such as: Only one ticket can be issued to the same vehcile in one day ( fines range from $25 - max. of $75) All fines are sent to Trenton (keeps locals from raising revenues) for a fund to educate motorists and to issue grants to purchase snow removal equipment. Whoever controlled the trailer during the snow storm is responsible for snow removal (i.e. port terminal) If a driver is on the way to a snow removal facility there will be no ticket. The law will go into effect in one year. To view S520/S1718, go to http://www.njleg.state.nj.us/2008/Bills/S1000/520_R4.HTM |
