A 3942 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

"Santiago/Ramos/Liu Police Protection Act"; requires certain law enforcement vehicles to have tinted windows.

This bill requires all new law enforcement vehicles purchased by New Jersey agencies - clearly marked as police vehicles - to have tinted windows meeting the minimum federal light transmittance standard. It applies only to newly acquired vehicles (not existing ones) and takes effect four months after enactment. The law mandates that these vehicles must have window tinting that allows only the minimum light permitted under federal rules. This policy change directly affects law enforcement agencies purchasing new patrol cars or similar vehicles.
