A new New Jersey law is requiring that drivers under the age of 21 add red decals to their license plates to denote their age for police officers to see.

The law, introduced as Kyleigh’s Law, was proposed after a teenager was killed by an inexperienced driver. The Department of Motor Vehicles expects 250,000 drivers to be affected by the law.

Small red stickers are supposed to be attached to the front and back license plates, letting authorities more quickly analyze whether a violation has been committed or not. The law includes new restrictions for younger drivers on night driving, passenger occupancy, and a ban on cell phone use, including hands-free devices. The decals cost $4, while the fine for not including them is $100.

Many parents have objected to the law, and are pressing lawmakers to repeal it. Too many are concerned that the stickers allow predators and stalkers to zero in on young girls.

If you or someone you know has been injured by another driver, you may be eligible for legal recourse. Contact the Edison car accident attorneys of Levinson Axelrod, P.A., by calling 800-346-5529 today to discuss your claim.
