TRENTON - Teen drivers in New Jersey will soon face a slew of new restrictions aimed at reducing the number of deaths by young drivers.

Gov. Corzine is expected to sign two new teen driving bills into law today.

Under the bills, those with learner’s or exam permits would need 12 months of practice before they could get a provisional license. That’s twice the current requirement.

Reflective decals would be required on vehicles operated by anyone with a learner’s or exam permit, or a provisional license.

Permit or probationary drivers could not use cell phones, even handsfree. -AP
