New Jersey A2960 amends firearm transportation law to allow reasonable deviations from course for lawful purposes.
New Jersey A2960 amends current law to replace the “reasonably necessary” standard with a less stringent reasonableness standard which allows persons lawfully transporting a firearm to deviate from their course of travel for a common, brief, and lawful purpose associated with reaching a statutorily permitted destination. The bill provides that reasonable deviations may include, but are not limited to, collecting and discharging passengers; obtaining supplies, medication, food or other provisions; and using a restroom prior to reaching a destination permitted pursuant to this subsection.
