A 2012 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Establishes "Automobile Accident Injury Fund."

This bill establishes the "Automobile Accident Injury Fund" within New Jersey's Department of Banking and Insurance to cover medical costs for people injured in car accidents involving stolen vehicles. It directly affects individuals who: (1) were injured when a stolen car was involved in an accident, and (2) have no health or auto insurance covering their medical bills. The fund pays for uncovered medical expenses after the department creates application procedures and payment criteria, without requiring the stolen car to have been properly insured. The fund is non-lapsing and revolving, meaning it permanently holds money to cover these specific cases.
