Extends provisions and makes technical corrections to school speed zones in NYC; repealer
This bill extends New York City's school speed zone photo enforcement program until 2030 (previously set to expire in 2025) and makes minor technical corrections to related traffic laws. It directly affects drivers in NYC school zones who may receive citations from photo enforcement cameras. The key change is the extension of the demonstration program allowing photo devices to monitor speed violations near schools, while repealing outdated provisions from earlier legislation. The bill does not change enforcement rules but ensures the current system continues operating through 2030.
