New Jersey § 2a:62a-35

§ 2a:62a-35.

a. Notwithstanding any provisions of law to the contrary, a person shall not be liable

for any property damages arising out of and in the course of forcibly entering a motor

vehicle for the purpose of removing a child left unattended and unsupervised in the

vehicle. The immunity granted pursuant to this subsection shall not apply to any person causing

damage to a motor vehicle as a result of recklessness or willful misconduct. b. The provisions of subsection a. of this section shall apply if the person: (1) determines that the motor vehicle is locked or there is no reasonable method to

remove a child from the vehicle; (2) has a reasonable good faith belief that forcible entry into the motor vehicle

is necessary because the child is in imminent danger of death or serious bodily injury

if not immediately removed from the vehicle; (3) contacts the local law enforcement agency, the fire department, emergency medical

services personnel, or 9-1-1 emergency telephone service for assistance prior to forcibly

entering the motor vehicle for purposes of removing the child; (4) places written notification on the motor vehicle's windshield with the person's

contact information, reason why entry into the vehicle was made, the location of the

child, and that law enforcement, the fire department, emergency medical services personnel,

or 9-1-1 emergency telephone service has been contacted; (5) remains with the child in a safe location reasonably close to the motor vehicle

until local law enforcement, the fire department, or emergency medical personnel arrives; (6) uses no more force than is necessary to enter and remove the child from the motor

vehicle; and (7) attempts to render aid to the child in addition to the assistance authorized pursuant

to this act.
