The bill expands the motor vehicle registration fee exemption to include disabled veterans: (1) who had taken part in World War II, the Korean Conflict between 1950 and 1953, and the Vietnam Conflict between 1960 and 1974, and who receive compensation as result of the loss of use of one or more limbs as result of military service; and (2) who have completed a VA 21-4502 form and have been approved by the United States Department of Veterans Affairs to receive an automobile or other conveyance and adaptive equipment. The bill requires the New Jersey Turnpike Authority and the South Jersey Transportation Authority to not charge a toll to any customer with an account with the electronic toll collection system, commonly known as E-ZPass, and who is exempt from the payment of motor vehicle registration fees, on the State's three toll roads, the New Jersey Turnpike, the Garden State Parkway, and the Atlantic City Expressway.
