Bill Summary

AN ACT to amend the vehicle and traffic law, in relation to the contents of a notice of liability issued for a speed camera violation

AI Summary

This bill amends the vehicle and traffic law to modify the requirements for speed camera violation notices. Specifically, the bill stipulates that if any required information in a speed camera violation notice is omitted, misdescribed, or illegible, the violation can be dismissed if the person alleged to be responsible for the violation submits an application to do so. The notice must currently include details such as the vehicle owner's name and address, vehicle registration number, violation location, date and time of violation, camera identification number, at least two time-stamped images of the vehicle's rear, and a signed certificate charging liability. The bill adds a provision that gives recipients of these notices more flexibility to challenge tickets if the documentation is incomplete or unclear. By allowing dismissal for technical errors in the notice, the bill provides additional procedural protections for individuals who receive speed camera violation notices, potentially making it easier to contest tickets with insufficient or unclear information.
