A 5528 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Requires NJTA and SJTA to exempt certain disabled veterans from E-ZPass tolls.

This bill requires the New Jersey Turnpike Authority (NJTA) and South Jersey Transportation Authority (SJTA) to create a program exempting certain disabled veterans from E-ZPass tolls. It directly affects disabled veterans who: 1) have a New Jersey-issued "Disabled Vet" license plate (per existing law), 2) own/lease a NJ-registered vehicle with that plate, and 3) maintain an active E-ZPass account. To qualify, veterans must first obtain the "Disabled Vet" license plate approval from the Motor Vehicle Commission before applying for the toll exemption. The authorities must approve all applications from veterans possessing the approved license plate.
