Bill Summary

Relates to operation of a three-wheeled vehicle; changes certain references to the term "wheel" to "mechanism".

AI Summary

This bill amends the Vehicle and Traffic Law to change certain references to the term "wheel" to "mechanism" in provisions related to the operation of three-wheeled vehicles. Specifically, it modifies the definition of the Class D and Class M driver's licenses to include the operation of three-wheeled vehicles that have two wheels in the front and one in the rear, have a steering mechanism (instead of a wheel), and are manufactured to comply with federal motor vehicle safety standards for motorcycles. Additionally, the bill exempts these three-wheeled vehicles from the requirement to take a road test in a "representative vehicle" when obtaining a driver's license.
