A 6228 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Authorizes certain emergency coordinators to operate emergency lights on vehicles.

This bill (A6228) expands who can legally operate emergency warning lights on their personal vehicles. It specifically authorizes county emergency medical services coordinators and deputy coordinators (in addition to existing volunteer fire/rescue personnel and county fire coordinators) to use such lights while performing official duties. The bill requires these coordinators to carry a special identification card issued by county officials, and mandates they follow all traffic laws - including yielding to emergency vehicles - while operating the lights. It does not grant new exemptions but clarifies existing rules for these specific roles.
