Allows law enforcement to impound vehicles of uninsured drivers immediately.

New Jersey A1584 allows law enforcement officers to immediately impound a motor vehicle if they determine the driver lacks required liability insurance. The vehicle can be reclaimed by providing proof of insurance and paying storage costs and fines. If not reclaimed within 30 days, the vehicle may be sold at auction, with proceeds over owed costs and fines returned to the vehicle owner. The bill also outlines penalties for operating without insurance, including fines, community service, and license suspension.
