S 921 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Permits dismissal of certain motor vehicle violations if defendant corrects issue within allotted time frame and provides acceptable documentation.

This bill allows drivers cited for certain minor traffic violations (like equipment issues or registration lapses) to avoid fines by fixing the problem and providing proof within 30 days. Acceptable documentation includes repair receipts, insurance records, or photos/videos showing corrections. Exceptions include safety hazards, fraud, suspended licenses, or unapproved vehicle modifications. If corrected, courts may collect only $33 or 25% of the original fine - whichever is less - instead of full penalties.
