TRENTON – A measure sponsored by Senator Robert Gordon which would amend the “Predatory Towing Prevention Act” to help give more rights to motorists and help prevent dishonest towing companies from preying on drivers has been signed into law.
“The focus of this new law is to clarify the rights of motorists,” said Senator Gordon, D-Bergen. “While parking rules and regulations are absolutely necessary to help keep order on our roadways, dishonest towing companies will not be permitted to make their money by patrolling parking lots without permission, and charging excessive rates to release impounded vehicles. This law will ensure that property owners have the final say over vehicles that are parked, legally and illegally, on their property.”
TRENTON – A measure sponsored by Senator Robert Gordon which would amend the “Predatory Towing Prevention Act” to help give more rights to motorists and help prevent dishonest towing companies from preying on drivers received final legislative approval today from the full Senate by a vote of 79 to 0.
“In adopting this bill, we are making a good piece of legislation great by expanding consumer rights,” said Senator Gordon, D-Bergen. “While it is important to follow parking rules and regulations dishonest towing companies cannot be allowed to make their money by patrolling parking lots without permission, and charging exorbitant rates to release vehicles. This bill would ensure that property owners have the final say over vehicles that are parked, legally and illegally, on their property.”
TRENTON – A measure sponsored by Joseph F. Vitale and Fred H. Madden that would require all registered health clubs in New Jersey to have an Automated External Defibrillator on site and have employees trained in its use was unanimously approved today by the Senate Health, Human Services and Senior Citizens Committee.
“When a person goes into cardiac arrest, the time between the onset of arrest and medical treatment can literally mean the difference between life and death,” said Senator Vitale, D-Middlesex, who chairs the Senate Health, Human Services and Senior Citizens Committee. “Rapid response to a cardiac emergency is key to ensuring survival. Requiring defibrillators in gyms and health clubs, where patrons might be more susceptible to cardiac distress, makes sense and will undoubtedly save lives in New Jersey.
