Requires NJ E-ZPass to establish and maintain user-friendly online payment process.
S 2157 requires the New Jersey Turnpike Authority (NJTA) and South Jersey Transportation Authority (SJTA) to create and maintain a user-friendly online payment system for toll fees and fines paid through New Jersey's E-ZPass system. The system must be easy to use, accessible to all users, minimize errors, and include a live chat feature for assistance. Authorities must regularly update the system and ensure any contracted vendors comply with these standards, conducting annual performance audits of the payment processing. This directly affects drivers using E-ZPass who pay tolls or fines online.
