Requires MVC to provide certain vehicle and licensing services in each county in State.
This bill requires the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission (MVC) to provide both vehicle registration services (like license plates and ownership certificates) and driver licensing services (like driver's licenses and ID cards) in every county. Specifically, the MVC must operate either separate agencies for each service type in every county, or a single agency handling both services per county. The bill mandates this change to ensure all New Jersey residents can access these essential services locally, rather than traveling to centralized locations. It takes effect three months after enactment.
