Bill Summary

AN ACT to amend the vehicle and traffic law, in relation to parking near a stop sign

AI Summary

This bill requires the commissioner of motor vehicles to install notifications on stop signs located on state highways that clearly indicate the existing parking restriction of no parking within 30 feet of a stop sign. Currently, the vehicle and traffic law prohibits parking within 30 feet of a stop sign, flashing signal, or traffic-control signal, but this bill mandates that the 30-foot distance requirement be explicitly posted beneath stop signs to improve motorist awareness. The bill will take effect 180 days after becoming law, and the commissioner of motor vehicles is authorized to begin installing the required signs immediately. By adding this visual notification, the bill aims to enhance driver understanding of parking restrictions and potentially reduce improper parking near intersections that could obstruct traffic visibility or safety.
