Requires law enforcement vehicles in New Jersey to have tinted windows with minimum light transmittance as per federal law.
The "Santiago/Ramos/Liu Police Protection Act" mandates that any new motor vehicle purchased for use by a law enforcement agency in New Jersey must have tinted windows. These windows must allow only the minimum light transmittance required by federal law, rule, or regulation. This requirement applies only to vehicles clearly and conspicuously marked for law enforcement use. The act honors New York City police officers Rafael Ramos and Wenjian Liu, and Jersey City police officer Melvin Santiago, who were killed in 2014. The act will take effect four months after its enactment.
