Cellular Phone Use While Driving is Now a Primary Offense
Effective March 1st, 2008, the use of wireless hand-held telephones and electronic communication devices by the operator of a moving vehicle is a primary offense in New Jersey. This means that you can be pulled over and issued a ticket by a police officer for talking on your cellular phone or text/electronic messaging with a phone or PDA.
Governor Corzine signed the bill into law in November of 2007 in an effort to make our roadways safer. An increased number of motor vehicle crashes are being attributed to distracted drivers and the cellular phone is one of the most common distractions.
Use of an electronic device or cellular phone means talking or listening to another person or text messaging or sending electronic messages while driving.
“The Ridgefield police Department is aggressively enforcing this law and asks that all motorists comply for the safety of everyone”
Thomas J. Gallagher
Chief of Police
