A 1648 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Establishes database containing information on traffic stops by certain law enforcement officers.

This bill requires New Jersey's Attorney General to create a public, searchable database tracking all traffic stops by state and local police. It mandates that police departments submit quarterly reports containing detailed information about each stop, including the driver's race/ethnicity, age, gender, the reason for the stop, whether a search occurred, and outcomes like citations or arrests. The database will include even stops resulting only in oral warnings, covering all interactions with law enforcement. The public can access this data online through the Department of Law and Public Safety website, aiming to increase transparency in traffic enforcement practices.
