Overview
This bill prevents transportation network companies (like Uber and Lyft) in New Jersey from raising fares during a state of emergency. Specifically, it prohibits ‘surge pricing,’ where fares are increased due to high demand, for 72 hours following a state of emergency declaration. The Governor can extend this prohibition for additional 72-hour periods if the emergency continues. This aims to ensure fair and accessible transportation options for residents during critical times.
