S 3307 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Authorizes certain emergency coordinators to operate emergency lights on vehicles.

This bill expands who can legally use emergency warning lights on personal vehicles by adding county fire and emergency medical services coordinators (and their deputies) to the list of eligible users. It requires these coordinators to obtain a state-issued identification card from their county or municipal government, which serves as a permit for mounting and operating the lights. The card must be carried while the lights are in use, and these users must follow all traffic laws, with other drivers required to yield as they would for emergency vehicles. The law clarifies that this authorization applies only to official duties and does not grant exemptions from traffic laws.
