Relates to adjudications and owner liability for a violation of traffic-control signal indications in the town of Greenburgh
This bill authorizes the Town of Greenburgh to implement a demonstration program that holds vehicle owners financially responsible for traffic signal violations committed by drivers operating the car with their permission. The town would use photo-monitoring cameras at up to two intersections to capture evidence of violations, ensuring that photos do not reveal the identities of drivers or passengers to protect privacy. If an owner is notified of a violation, they face a fine of up to fifty dollars, which does not count as a criminal conviction or affect their driving record or insurance rates. The legislation also provides defenses for owners, such as proving the vehicle was stolen or showing that they were a lessor who provided proof of the rental agreement within a specific timeframe.
