Left Your Wallet at Home? New Jersey to Roll Out Digital Drivers Licenses

General News

Summary

New Jersey will require its motor vehicle commission to create digital driver's licenses and digital non-driver ID cards. The state has up to three years to implement the program, so residents may not see it until 2029. The legislation makes digital ID voluntary and adds protections that limit how law enforcement can use or access a person's phone during identity verification. The article also notes that New Jersey has not yet decided whether the IDs will live in a state app or integrate with Apple Wallet or Google Pay.
