        AN  ACT  to  amend the vehicle and traffic law, in relation to requiring
          the use of rear wheel guards on certain vehicles
 
          The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and  Assem-
        bly, do enact as follows:
 

     1    Section  1.  This  act  shall  be known and may be cited as the "Amara
     2  Diarrassouba life saving truck guard law".
     3    § 2. Section 375 of the vehicle and traffic law is amended by adding a
     4  new subdivision 10-f to read as follows:
     5    10-f. Every truck, tractor, and tractor-trailer or semitrailer  combi-
     6  nation  registered in this state having a gross vehicle weight rating of
     7  twenty-six thousand pounds or more, and a conventional cab configuration
     8  in which more than half of the engine length is forward of the  foremost
     9  point  of  the  windshield  base  and  the  steering wheel hub is in the
    10  forward quarter of the vehicle length, whenever operated within  a  city
    11  having  a population of one million or more on highways other than cont-

    12  rolled-access highways, shall be equipped with rear wheel guards on  the
    13  rear wheels of such vehicle or combination of vehicles.
    14    §  3.  This  act shall be deemed repealed if any federal agency or any
    15  court of competent jurisdiction finally determines that this  act  would
    16  render New York state ineligible for the receipt of federal funds.
    17    §  4.  Severability.  If any clause, sentence, subdivision, paragraph,
    18  section or part of this act be adjudged by any court of competent juris-
    19  diction to be invalid, such judgment shall not affect, impair or invali-
    20  date the remainder thereof, but shall be confined in  its  operation  to
    21  the  clause,  sentence,  subdivision, paragraph, section or part thereof
    22  directly involved in the controversy in which such judgment  shall  have
    23  been rendered.

    24    § 5. This act shall take effect on the one hundred eightieth day after
    25  it shall have become a law; provided, however, that effective immediate-
 
         EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
                              [ ] is old law to be omitted.
                                                                   LBD09940-03-3

        A. 6418                             2
 
     1  ly,  the  addition,  amendment  and/or  repeal of any rule or regulation
     2  necessary for the implementation of this act on its  effective  date  is
     3  authorized  to  be  made and completed on or before such effective date;
     4  and  provided  that the commissioner of the department of transportation
     5  shall notify the legislative bill drafting commission  upon  the  occur-
     6  rence  of  the provisions of section three of this act in order that the

     7  commission may maintain an accurate data base of the  official  text  of
     8  the  laws  of  the  state  of  New  York in furtherance of effecting the
     9  provisions of section 44 of the legislative law and section 70-b of  the
    10  public officers law.
