Allows municipality to use school bus video footage to ticket driver for illegally passing school bus.
This bill allows New Jersey municipalities to use video footage from school bus cameras to issue tickets to drivers who illegally pass school buses when children are boarding or exiting. It requires law enforcement to review footage within 90 days of a violation, issue a summons if appropriate, and purge all footage after 60 days (or three days if no ticket is issued). Drivers face a $100 fine for a first offense and $250 for subsequent offenses, with vehicle owners generally liable unless they prove unauthorized use. The bill specifies that no driving points or insurance penalties apply, and footage cannot be shared publicly except in criminal cases.
