Whitman saw Bill mastery speed limit
Both houses of the State Legislative approved by an overwhelming majority a bill today that would be the speed limit on some state and federal roads in New Jersey to 65 miles per hour. But Dir Christine Todd Whitman, had recently gently its objections against the speed limit higher, it is expected that the veto.
Your adviser said that the action taken against it, because this is not a provision for a trial period for studying the effects of the increased speed limit.
Mrs. Whitman has long been against lifting the speed limit and reaffirms its position that the fall gubernatorial campaign. She cites concern for the state police, which would increase the speed limit driving more traffic than death.
But it had sold a little, if last week showed that the legislature has set to vote before December 31, increasing the speed limit. Mrs. Whitman said then that the limit of 65 km / h for a trial period - when he went along with an extension of a new security program on the aggressive driver. This summer, the state began patrols and increase penalties against drivers, such tactics Tailgating as uncertain and weaving, to and from the pavement.
Well, Mrs. Whitman has the option of vetoing the legislation or to try for legislators to go with its plan to increase the speed for a limited period. You do not determine how long a trial period, they want to.
”This bill is not in accordance with the wishes of the governor,’’said Pete McDonough, the Governor of the Spokesman-in-chief. ”But we are talking to the sponsors to see if an agreement can be developed to limit the speed.”
New Jersey, the state’s most densely populated nation, is one of only three countries that are not on the speed limit of 55 km / h since federal law allows countries, their own borders, starting in 1995. The other two states of Connecticut and Hawaii.
Under the new legislation that could limit the speed at 809 miles of limited-access highway, including portions of the New Jersey Turnpike, Garden State Parkway, Atlantic City Expressway and other major roads. The legislation would allow transportation officials and police officers to determine which roads would have greater speed boundaries. It is likely that the rendering very dense roads in populated areas of the State must continue to limit 55 mph.
The bill was bipartie support in both houses. The Senate voted 31 to 5, a veto proof majority. The General Assembly approved 53 to 21, with one abstention. The Assembly must replace 54 votes to Mrs. Whitman’s promised veto.
Supporters of the bill said that the current pace of 55 km / h limit has been ignored by most motorists and has not been implemented.
”If the reader 55 m.p.h. on the Garden State Parkway or the New Jersey Turnpike, you will get under way,’’said State Senator Louis C. Bassano, a Republican of the Union. ”The best is to travel at the speed traffic flow. Let the truth.”
But John K. Tiene, a spokesman for the insurance industry automobile in New Jersey, said it was likely that increasing the speed limit would lead to higher prices than auto insurance, because the insurance industry expects an increase in accidents der”Schwere. “The state now has the highest auto-insurance in the nation, and the anger of voters on the issue of violation of Mrs. Whitman in polls in November.
