A 5302 New York Assembly · 2023 Regular Session

Allows boards of cooperative educational services to install school bus stop sign cameras

This bill allows local governments and boards of cooperative educational services to install cameras on school buses to automatically issue tickets for drivers who fail to stop when a bus is loading or unloading. Under the proposed rules, local counties, cities, towns, or villages would pay for the cameras and handle the data, while school districts and educational boards would manage the buses but be strictly prohibited from accessing the captured images. The legislation also requires that any photos taken by these systems be used solely for traffic enforcement and cannot be used as evidence in school disciplinary proceedings. Additionally, the bill establishes a process where local governments must make annual payments to cover the costs of installing and maintaining the monitoring systems.
