§ 17:16K-8 — Evaluation of automated teller machines for safety

2. a. Operators of all automated teller machines in operation after the effective date of this act shall evaluate the safety of automated teller machines. This evaluation shall include consideration of: (1) The extent to which the lighting for the automated teller machine or automated teller machine facility complies with the standards required by section 4 of this act. (2) The presence of landscaping, vegetation, or structures in the area of an automated teller machine or automated teller machine facility, the access area, or a defined parking area which might obstruct views so as to adversely affect the safety of users. b. It is not the intent of the Legislature in enacting this section to impose a duty to close, relocate or modify automated teller machines or automated teller machine facilities upon the occurrence of any particular events or circumstances, but rather to establish a standard of good faith for the evaluation thereof.
