Bill > A02193

This bill provides technical corrections to the New York Vehicle and Traffic Law by repealing existing subdivisions and adding a new subdivision 10 that outlines procedures for adjudicating liability for various types of traffic violations captured by photo monitoring systems. Specifically, the bill establishes administrative processes for handling violations related to: traffic signal red-light running, speed limit violations (including in construction zones), bus lane restrictions, bus operation-related traffic regulations, school bus stop violations, toll collection regulations, and gross vehicle weight or axle weight restrictions. These provisions allow local authorities and public agencies to implement monetary liability programs using photo monitoring technology, where vehicle owners can be held responsible for traffic violations committed by the vehicle's operator. The new provisions are detailed across multiple sub-sections (a) through (h), each addressing a specific type of traffic violation and the corresponding monitoring system. The bill takes effect immediately upon enactment, streamlining the legal framework for handling these technologically-monitored traffic infractions.
