Permits use of LED lights in emergency warning lights.
This bill permits the use of LED lights in emergency warning systems on vehicles in New Jersey. It directly affects emergency vehicles (like police cars and ambulances) by expanding the approved light types beyond current options (strobe, halogen, incandescent) to include LED. The bill requires the Motor Vehicle Commission to update regulations to explicitly allow low-profile LED light bars, alongside existing types, while maintaining the existing rule of no more than two lights per vehicle. This changes the technical specifications for emergency lighting without altering vehicle usage rules.
