Requires certain toll road operators and bi-state agency to allow drivers to choose towing company.
This bill requires the New Jersey Turnpike Authority (NJTA), South Jersey Transportation Authority (SJTA), and Palisades Interstate Park Commission to adopt regulations allowing drivers on their respective toll roads to choose their own towing company for towing and storage services. The law mandates that these authorities must permit driver choice in towing services, while still allowing them to contract with towing companies for vehicles deemed abandoned. The bill repeals previous provisions requiring NJTA and SJTA to register towing companies. This change applies to the New Jersey Turnpike, Garden State Parkway, Atlantic City Expressway, and Palisades Interstate Parkway.
