New Jersey S1510 would establish permanent daylight saving time in New Jersey, remaining on Eastern Daylight Time year-round.
New Jersey S1510 would require New Jersey to observe daylight saving time year-round, remaining on Eastern Daylight Time, if the federal government authorizes states to do so. The bill cites studies indicating that permanent daylight saving time could reduce pedestrian and motor vehicle occupant fatalities, and decrease motor vehicle crashes at dusk. The change would take effect immediately upon federal authorization, with other provisions taking effect on the first Sunday in November following federal authorization.
