S 3393 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Requires MVC to develop informational pamphlet concerning operation of low-speed electric bicycles and low-speed electric scooters; requires certain food delivery companies to distribute pamphlet to certain individuals.

This bill requires New Jersey's Motor Vehicle Commission (MVC) to create and annually update an informational pamphlet about operating low-speed electric bicycles and scooters. The pamphlet must cover current laws, penalties for violations, and include a notice about distribution requirements. Food delivery companies that use these vehicles for deliveries must distribute the pamphlet to all their delivery drivers within 30 days of receiving it from the MVC and include it in hiring paperwork. The MVC must publish the pamphlet online with translations into at least five languages (including Spanish) and send two copies to each qualifying food delivery company within 60 days of development. It directly affects MVC, food delivery companies, and their drivers who use low-speed e-bikes/scooters for deliveries.

MODERATE

The Senate Transportation Committee made several amendments to this bill requiring the MVC to create a pamphlet on e-bike and e-scooter laws for food delivery companies. The most notable changes are: adding a reference to a new 2025 law (P.L.2025, c.285) that must be covered in the pamphlet, narrowing the distribution requirement from the 'hiring process' to the 'application process,' and extending the effective date from approximately 60 days to exactly 90 days after enactment.

SCOPE

The pamphlet must now include information on P.L.2025, c.285 (C.39:6A-4.8 et al.) in addition to the previously referenced P.L.2019, c.121, expanding the body of law covered by the required educational material.

REQUIREMENT

The requirement for food delivery companies to include the pamphlet in paperwork was narrowed from 'during the hiring process' to 'during the application process,' which is a slightly narrower window (application vs. the full hiring cycle).

TIMELINE

The effective date was changed from 'the first day of the second month after enactment' (approximately 60 days) to 'the 90th day after enactment,' giving stakeholders an additional roughly 30 days before the law takes effect.

TECHNICAL

The STATEMENT section (a summary paragraph typically appended to New Jersey bills) was removed, which is a procedural change with no policy impact.
