Authorizes hunters to ride in bed of pickup trucks under certain circumstances.
This New Jersey bill (A-1834) permits licensed hunters to ride in the bed of a pickup truck while traveling between hunting sites or to a hunting clubhouse/lodge, provided the vehicle moves at under 35 mph. It directly affects licensed hunters traveling for hunting purposes, overriding existing vehicle laws that typically prohibit such passenger arrangements. The key provision allows this exception only during specific hunting-related travel, with strict speed and location limitations. The bill takes immediate effect upon enactment and does not alter general vehicle safety rules.
