This bill mandates the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission (MVC) to create and issue mobile drivers licenses and mobile identification cards that can be accessed on mobile electronic devices. A mobile drivers license encompasses various types of licenses, including basic, motorcycle, and probationary licenses, and contains all the information found on traditional hard-copy versions. The MVC is authorized to charge a reasonable fee for these mobile documents and must implement security features to prevent alterations or counterfeiting. Additionally, individuals with these mobile licenses or cards will have the ability to update their motor vehicle records, such as changes in address or organ donor status, which will take precedence over information on their hard-copy documents.

The bill also amends existing law to allow drivers to present their drivers license, registration certificate, or insurance identification card in either paper or electronic form. It specifies that displaying these documents on a mobile device does not grant police officers or judges access to other contents on the device, and they are protected from liability for any damage to the device. The bill outlines penalties for violations related to the possession of these documents and establishes a timeline for implementation, allowing the MVC to take necessary administrative actions prior to the act's effective date, which is set for 72 months after enactment.
