Bill Summary

This bill adds migraine to the list of medical conditions that would permit a person to install motor vehicle window tinting. Current law prohibits add-on tinting on windshields and front side windows of motor vehicles, with certain exceptions. Individuals who have a medical condition involving ophthalmic or dermatological photosensitivity may apply to the Chief Administrator of the Motor Vehicle Commission (MVC) to have supplemental sun-screening materials or products applied to the windshield and front windows of their motor vehicles to protect them from the sun. This bill adds migraine to the list of medical conditions involving ophthalmic or dermatologic photosensitivity for which individuals may apply to the Chief Administrator of the MVC to have supplemental sun-screening materials or products applied to the windshield and front windows of their motor vehicles to protect them from the sun.

AI Summary

This bill amends existing New Jersey law to allow individuals with migraines to install tinted windows on their motor vehicles, provided they obtain permission from the Director of the Motor Vehicle Commission (MVC). Currently, New Jersey law prohibits adding tint to windshields and front side windows, with exceptions for individuals who have medical conditions causing sensitivity to light (ophthalmic or dermatologic photosensitivity). To get this exception, a person must apply to the Director of the MVC and provide a doctor's certification confirming their condition. This bill specifically adds "migraine" to the list of qualifying medical conditions that involve photosensitivity, alongside other conditions like lupus and solar urticaria, allowing those who suffer from migraines to seek permission for supplemental sun-screening materials on their vehicle's windows to protect them from the sun.
