Authorizes DOT to establish and administer toll collection and enforcement system on behalf of NJ toll authorities and to enter into reciprocal agreements for enforcement of toll violations with toll authorities from other states.

Maddy summaryThis bill authorizes New Jersey's Department of Transportation (DOT) to manage toll collection and enforcement for state toll authorities, including creating agreements with other states to handle unpaid tolls. It allows the DOT to suspend driver's licenses or vehicle registrations for toll violations and makes vehicle owners jointly liable for unpaid tolls committed by operators (with limited exceptions). Civil penalties of up to $100 for first violations and $600 for subsequent violations apply, enforced through the "Penalty Enforcement Law of 1999." The law directly affects drivers and vehicle owners using New Jersey toll roads, requiring toll payment and imposing specific consequences for non-payment.

Exempts certain motor vehicles that are owned by certain nutrition programs and certain nonprofit organizations that offer social services from motor vehicle registration fees.*

Maddy summaryThis bill exempts motor vehicles owned by specific senior nutrition programs (like Meals on Wheels America members) and nonprofit organizations providing social services (including addiction, mental health, and behavioral health support) from New Jersey's motor vehicle registration fees. It adds these entities to the existing list of organizations already exempt from such fees, which includes government agencies, hospitals, and volunteer groups. The key mechanism is amending the state's vehicle registration code to explicitly include these organizations' vehicles under the fee exemption. This directly affects eligible nonprofits and nutrition programs by reducing their operational costs for vehicles used in their core services.
