AARP New Jersey's Statement on Creation of Target Zero Commission

"AARP New Jersey commends Governor Murphy for signing legislation to establish the Target Zero Commission, which will evaluate traffic safety and support the design of a transportation system with the goal of eliminating fatal and serious injuries for all road users. AARP has a vested interest in this issue since people 50 and older represented the majority of 2024 pedestrian fatalities. It is our hope that this important commission will make our roads safer for everyone."

- Chris Widelo, AARP New Jersey State Director
