Bill Summary

Requires MVC to create mobile driver's licenses and identification cards.

AI Summary

This bill requires the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission (MVC) to create mobile driver's licenses and identification cards, in addition to the traditional printed hard-copy versions. The mobile versions will be accessible on mobile electronic devices and contain the same information as the physical cards. The MVC can charge a reasonable fee for the issuance of these mobile licenses and IDs, and must implement features to ensure the security and integrity of the mobile versions. The bill also allows individuals to update their motor vehicle records, such as changing their address or organ donor status, directly through the mobile license or ID. The existing law requiring drivers to possess a physical driver's license is amended to accommodate the new mobile option, as long as the mobile version is presented in a way that does not require the person to display or relinquish their electronic device.
