S 975 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Requires Superintendent of State Police to publish cannabis-related fatal motor vehicle crash statistics.

This bill (S 975) requires New Jersey's Superintendent of State Police to collect and publish annual statistics on cannabis-related fatal motor vehicle crashes. It mandates adding this data to the existing annual Fatal Motor Vehicle Crash Report, which currently includes alcohol-related crash statistics. The law defines "cannabis" per existing state law (P.L.2021, c.16) and applies directly to state police data collection practices. This is a reporting requirement, not a change to cannabis use or traffic laws.
