Bill > A01662

This bill amends the vehicle and traffic law to require more comprehensive contact information on motor vehicle accident reports, specifically for accidents involving commercial enterprises. Under the proposed changes, accident reports must now include contact details such as names, addresses, telephone numbers, and email addresses (where available) for all parties involved in the accident, with special emphasis on commercial enterprises where a vehicle or bicycle is operated by an employee or independent contractor. The bill mandates that telephone numbers and email addresses for all parties and witnesses be included in the accident report, which expands the current reporting requirements to capture more detailed contact information. This change aims to improve the ability to follow up on and document motor vehicle accidents by ensuring that contact information for commercial entities and individuals involved in accidents is more thoroughly captured and reported to the appropriate authorities.
