S 1153 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Qualifies certain disabled veterans for toll rate exemptions and exemptions from motor vehicle registration fees.

This bill (S 1153) extends existing motor vehicle registration fee exemptions for certain disabled veterans to toll facilities. It requires the New Jersey Turnpike Authority and South Jersey Transportation Authority to waive toll charges for veterans who are already exempt from registration fees under Section 1 of P.L.1948, c.28. Eligibility includes veterans with service-connected disabilities qualifying under federal laws (Public Laws 663-79th Congress and 187-82nd Congress) or veterans of World War I with specific disabilities, provided they hold a valid New Jersey driver's license. The bill directly affects qualifying disabled veterans who own passenger vehicles not used for hire, ensuring they pay no tolls on state toll facilities when their vehicle registration is fee-exempt.
