New Jersey EVA, RideWise and EZ Ride are pleased to offer an EV awareness program for first responders in New Jersey State. This program is particularly suitable for firefighters and aims to increase awareness of EV-specific safety procedures for first responders deployed to a scene involving electric vehicle collisions. The program comprises one hour of in-class presentation at 7 PM followed by 1 hr of EV show, which covers hands-on inspections of various plug-in electric vehicles using the First Responder Guide.
We call for EV volunteers to bring their vehicles to show them to the first responders:
- let them find the safety disconnect
- share your positive driving experience
- share your joy of driving electric
By registering at this portal, you are committed to the EV show portion only. If you are interested in attending the entire session, please mention it in the comments and arrive 6:50 PM to sign the paperwork.
Dinner (e.g. pizza and beverages) will be provided to all who bring their EV.
For effective planning, we are asking EV volunteers to register by February 10, 2026. By registering early, we can get food for everyone. And as we get closer to the event, communication will be sent to registered people. You don't want to miss on it.
