Speaker Craig Coughlin (D-Middlesex) issued the following statement today after the full Assembly voted 42-30-5, and the Senate voted 21-17, sending legislation (A-4743) to create two categories of driver’s licenses in New Jersey to the Governor’s desk:
“The legislation advanced on the Assembly floor and by the Senate today is fair and responsible. It brings us one-step closer to ensuring all motor vehicles and drivers are insured thereby creating safer roadways for all New Jersey residents.
“I thank bill sponsor and Assembly Judiciary Committee chairwoman Annette Quijano for her hard work and leadership on this issue.”
