Exempts farm vehicles from certain commercial motor vehicle liability coverage requirements.
S 3857 would require farm tractors and traction equipment used for farming to carry a minimum of $300,000 in liability insurance, instead of the $1.5 million required for most commercial vehicles. The bill applies to these vehicles when registered under New Jersey law for agricultural operations. This reduces the insurance coverage standard specifically for farm vehicles, lowering their requirement from the general commercial vehicle threshold. The policy change modifies existing insurance law to create a distinct coverage category for farm operations.
