A 2321 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Requires Division of Highway Traffic Safety to conduct public awareness campaign regarding bicycle and pedestrian safety.

This bill requires New Jersey's Division of Highway Traffic Safety to launch a public awareness campaign focused on bicycle and pedestrian safety. The campaign will educate the public about current laws, including rules for bicyclists (such as riding on the right side of the road) and motorists (such as safely passing pedestrians and cyclists), along with penalties for violations. It specifically references two existing laws: a 1951 statute on bicyclist positioning and a 2021 law on safe passing practices. The bill does not create new laws but mandates the dissemination of existing safety regulations to inform the public.
