Provides for restricted use driver's license as alternatives for license suspension in municipal court.
This bill would allow New Jersey municipal courts to issue restricted driver's licenses as an alternative to full license suspension for people facing financial hardship due to a suspended license, excluding suspensions related to certain offenses like DUI. The restricted license would only permit driving for work or school commutes during specific hours and between specific locations, requiring a special placard displayed in the vehicle's rear window. A fee of up to $100 would cover the license and placard, and the restricted license would expire when the regular license is restored.
