The Law on Texting While Driving in New Jersey

It is illegal to text while driving in New Jersey. The texting ban applies to all drivers. In addition, all drivers are prohibited from using handheld cellphones. Drivers are, however, permitted to talk on cellphones if using a wireless device, such as Bluetooth. Police can pull drivers over and cite them for cellphone use or texting even if there is no other reason for the officer to stop the vehicle.

Finding Evidence of Distracted Driving

Led by Morristown texting while driving accident lawyer, we conduct thorough investigations of each car accident claim we handle. If evidence of texting while driving is found, the injured person could recover additional compensation, due to the fact that texting while driving is recognized as such a dangerous act. We search for evidence of cellphone use in a number of ways, such as:

  • Using a subpoena to obtain cell-phone records
  • Accessing the vehicle’s computer system to analyze it, if the car is new enough
  • Locate and question appropriate people to uncover and confirm cellphone use
