A 2951 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Requires MVC to provide reasonable accommodation to persons with disabilities during certain knowledge examinations.

This bill requires New Jersey's Motor Vehicle Commission (MVC) to provide reasonable accommodations to people with disabilities during written knowledge examinations for standard driver's licenses and commercial driver's licenses. It amends existing law to ensure that testing procedures are adjusted so that exam results accurately reflect a person's knowledge rather than their disability. The provision directly affects individuals with disabilities who need to pass these exams to obtain or renew their licenses. The bill specifically mandates that accommodations be provided for both standard and commercial driver's license knowledge tests.
