Bill > A4192

This bill requires the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission (MVC) to take certain actions concerning commercial driver licenses (CDLs) and commercial learner's permits (CLPs). Specifically, the bill prohibits drivers who have engaged in prohibited drug or alcohol-related conduct from performing safety-sensitive functions, including driving a commercial motor vehicle, unless they have met the return-to-duty requirements. The bill also requires the MVC to request information from the federal drug and alcohol clearinghouse for all CDL and CLP applicants, and to downgrade the CDL or CLP of any driver who is prohibited from operating a commercial motor vehicle. The bill further requires the MVC to request clearinghouse information for all hazardous materials endorsement renewal applicants and to downgrade the CDL or CLP if the applicant is prohibited from operating a commercial motor vehicle.
