A 6282 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Relates to risk retention groups and commuter vans, pre-arranged for-hire vehicles, or accessible vehicles

This bill modifies insurance requirements for specific vehicle types under New York's vehicle and traffic law. It allows risk retention groups (specialized insurance pools) to provide coverage for commuter vans, pre-arranged for-hire vehicles (like small shuttle services), and wheelchair-accessible vehicles - provided they meet defined safety and accessibility standards. These vehicles must not be used solely for personal trips by executives or their families, and accessible vehicles must comply with ADA requirements (e.g., wheelchair lifts, assistive listening systems). The change primarily affects non-profit organizations and transportation operators using these vehicle types, expanding their insurance options without requiring traditional insurers.
