New Jersey S148 changes the allocation of fines from motor vehicle violations in municipalities with four or more limited-access highways.
New Jersey S148 modifies the distribution of fines collected for motor vehicle violations in specific municipalities. Currently, all fines are directed to the State’s General Fund. This bill alters that by allocating 25 percent of the fines to the municipality where the violation occurred, to be used for general municipal purposes and to cover the costs of operating the municipal court. The remaining 75 percent will still be allocated to the State’s General Fund. This change applies to municipalities with at least four limited-access highways traversing their boundaries.
