New Jersey § 39:4-8
Full text of New Jersey New Jersey Statutes § 39:4-8, with citation guidance and answers to common questions.
§ 39:4-8.
The Legislature finds: The disregard of traffic control devices at intersections impedes the efficient flow
of traffic, and more importantly, dramatically increases the likelihood of accidents
that endanger the safety and well being of motor vehicle occupants and pedestrians. The installation and use of a traffic control signal monitoring system, which complements
the efforts of local law enforcement, could serve as an effective tool in encouraging
drivers to strictly obey traffic control devices at intersections, facilitating the
flow of traffic and protecting the safety and well being of motor vehicle occupants
and pedestrians. The Legislature, therefore, declares: It is altogether fitting and proper, and within the public interest, to require the
Commissioner of Transportation to establish a pilot program to determine the effectiveness
of the installation and utilization of traffic control signal monitoring systems in
this State and to approve applications from municipalities where such systems may
be installed.
