A10109 Memo:

NEW YORK STATE ASSEMBLY
MEMORANDUM IN SUPPORT OF LEGISLATION
submitted in accordance with Assembly Rule III, Sec 1(f)
 
BILL NUMBER: A10109
 
SPONSOR: Ra
  TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend chapter 19 of the laws of 2009, amending the vehicle and traffic law and other laws relating to adjudications and owner liability for a violation of traffic-control signal indications, in relation to extending the provisions of such chapter   PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL: To reduce motor vehicle crash fatalities, injuries, and property damage caused by motorists' failure to obey traffic signals by extending the expiration date of the program to December 1, 2029.   SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS: The bill authorizes the County of Nassau to continue a local law estab- lishing a 5 year demonstration program to impose monetary liability on the owners of motor vehicles for an operator's failure to comply with traffic-control indications within the County. The current law author- izes the County of Nassau to install and operate traffic-control signal photo violation-monitoring devices at no more than one hundred inter- sections within such County at any one time. The current law provides for the form of the evidence of liability and its availability for inspection in adjudicatory proceedings, require- ments for the information to be contained in notices of liability ("NOLs") and the method for delivery to owners alleged to be liable. Requirements relating to the adjudication process are also provided.   JUSTIFICATION: Installing Red Light Cameras at intersections with a high traffic acci- dent rate in the County has served to prevent accidents and save lives. The installation of Red Light Cameras has acted as a deterrent for driv- ers from running red lights due to costs incurred when the driver is caught on camera. Placement of cameras in the County has resulted in safer streets. Red Light Cameras have a strong track record of reducing traffic acci- dents by as much as 80% at intersections where they are installed creat- ing a safer environment for all according to studies done across the nation. The goal of the red-light camera program is to change driver behavior thereby creating safer streets.   PRIOR LEGISLATIVE HISTORY: This bill extends a program which was first authorized in 2009.   FISCAL IMPLICATIONS: None to state.   EFFECTIVE DATE: This act shall take effect on the thirtieth day after it shall have become a law and shall expire December 1, 2029.
