Bill Summary

Urges restaurants to include warnings against use of mobile ordering features while driving.

AI Summary

This Resolution urges restaurants in New Jersey that offer mobile ordering, which is the ability for customers to place orders for food or drinks using their cell phones, to include safety features like pop-up warnings. These warnings would caution customers against using the mobile ordering feature while driving, acknowledging that distracted driving, often caused by cell phone use, is a significant cause of traffic fatalities and injuries, as highlighted by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). The resolution aims to encourage safer driving habits by promoting awareness and encouraging businesses to implement these protective measures, especially since New Jersey law already prohibits the use of handheld electronic devices while driving.
