New Jersey S2007 allows emergency personnel to operate personal watercraft without certain speed restrictions during rescue operations.
New Jersey S2007 modifies existing law to allow emergency personnel to operate personal watercraft without certain speed restrictions while performing official duties. Specifically, the bill waives the requirement for law enforcement officers, firefighters, beach patrol members, and emergency medical services personnel to adhere to speed limits near the shoreline, swimming areas, people in the water, and residential areas. It also allows these personnel to operate the watercraft in a manner that makes it airborne near other vessels.
