49 § 10. The vehicle and traffic law is amended by adding a new section
50 1180-b to read as follows:
51 § 1180-b. Owner liability for failure of operator to comply with
52 applicable maximum speed limit. 1. Notwithstanding any other provision
53 of law, each city with a population of one million or more is hereby
54 authorized and empowered to establish a demonstration program imposing
55 monetary liability on the owner of a vehicle for failure of an operator
56 thereof to comply with the applicable maximum speed limit in such city
S. 7854 18
1 in accordance with the provisions of this section. Such city, for
2 purposes of the implementation of such program, shall operate speed
3 limit photo devices within such city at no more than forty and no fewer
4 than twenty locations at any one time during any year of such program.
5 Such speed limit photo devices may be stationary or mobile and shall be
6 activated at locations selected by such city, except that no more than
7 twenty locations shall be activated with mobile speed limit photo
8 devices at any one time during any year of such demonstration program.
9 Such speed limit photo devices shall be installed based on a demon-
10 strated need, which shall be determined by a number of criteria, includ-
11 ing but not limited to speeding data, accident history and roadway geom-
12 etry.
13 2. In any city that has established a demonstration program pursuant
14 to subdivision one of this section, the owner of a vehicle shall be
15 liable for a penalty imposed pursuant to this section if such vehicle
16 was used or operated with the permission of the owner, express or
17 implied, in violation of subdivision (c) or (d) of section eleven
18 hundred eighty of this article, and such violation is evidenced by
19 information obtained from a speed limit photo device; provided however
20 that no owner of a vehicle shall be liable for a penalty imposed pursu-
21 ant to this section where the operator of such vehicle has been
22 convicted of the underlying violation of subdivision (c) or (d) of
23 section eleven hundred eighty of this article.
24 3. Such demonstration program shall utilize necessary technologies to
25 ensure, to the extent practicable, that photographs produced by such
26 speed limit photo devices shall not include images that identify the
27 driver, the passengers or the contents of the vehicle, provided, howev-
28 er, that no notice of liability issued pursuant to this section shall be
29 dismissed solely because a photograph or photographs allow for the iden-
30 tification of the driver, the passengers or other contents of a vehicle,
31 provided that such city has made a reasonable effort to comply with the
32 provisions of this subdivision.
33 4. Such demonstration program shall include a prohibition on the use
34 or dissemination of vehicles' license plate information and other infor-
35 mation and images captured by speed cameras except as required to estab-
36 lish liability under this section or collect payment of penalties;
37 except as required to respond to a request by law enforcement officials
38 pertaining to a specific accident or specific incident of alleged crimi-
39 nal conduct; or except as otherwise required by law.
40 5. For purposes of this section, "owner" shall have the meaning
41 provided in section two hundred thirty-nine of this chapter. For
42 purposes of this section, "speed limit photo device" shall mean equip-
43 ment that takes a film or digital camera-based photograph, microphoto-
44 graph, video, or other recorded image which is linked with a violation
45 detection system that synchronizes the taking of such image of a vehicle
46 at the time the vehicle is used or operated in violation of subdivision
47 (c) or (d) of section eleven hundred eighty of this article.
48 6. A certificate, sworn to or affirmed by a technician employed by the
49 city in which the charged violation occurred or its vendor or contrac-
50 tor, or a facsimile thereof, based upon inspection of photographs,
51 microphotographs, videotape or other recorded images produced by a speed
52 limit photo device, shall be prima facie evidence of the facts contained
53 therein. Any photographs, microphotographs, videotape or other recorded
54 images evidencing such a violation shall be available for inspection in
55 any proceeding to adjudicate the liability for such violation pursuant
56 to this section.
S. 7854 19
1 7. An owner liable for a violation of subdivision (c) or (d) of
2 section eleven hundred eighty of this article shall be liable for mone-
3 tary penalties in accordance with a schedule of fines and penalties
4 promulgated by the parking violations bureau of such city; provided,
5 however, that the monetary penalty for driving at a speed in excess of
6 the maximum speed limit by fifteen or more miles per hour and less than
7 thirty miles per hour shall not exceed fifty dollars, and the monetary
8 penalty for driving in excess of the maximum speed limit by thirty or
9 more miles per hour shall not exceed one hundred dollars; provided,
10 further, that an owner shall be liable for an additional penalty not to
11 exceed twenty-five dollars for each violation for the failure to respond
12 to a notice of liability within the prescribed time period.
13 8. An imposition of liability pursuant to this section shall not be
14 deemed a conviction as an operator and shall not be made part of the
15 operating record of the person upon whom such liability is imposed nor
16 shall it be used for insurance purposes in the provision of motor vehi-
17 cle insurance coverage.
18 9. (a) A notice of liability shall be sent by first class mail in
19 accordance with this section to each person alleged to be liable as an
20 owner for a violation of subdivision (c) or (d) of section eleven
21 hundred eighty of this article. Personal delivery on the owner shall not
22 be required. A manual or automatic record of mailing prepared in the
23 ordinary course of business shall be prima facie evidence of the facts
24 contained therein.
25 (b) A notice of liability shall contain the name and address of the
26 person alleged to be liable as an owner for a violation of subdivision
27 (c) or (d) of section eleven hundred eighty of this article, the regis-
28 tration number of the vehicle involved in such violation, the location
29 where such violation took place, the date and time of such violation and
30 the identification number of the speed limit photo device which recorded
31 the violation or other document locator number.
32 (c) The notice of liability shall contain information advising the
33 person charged of the manner and the time in which he or she may contest
34 the liability alleged in the notice. Such notice of liability shall also
35 contain a warning to advise the persons charged that failure to contest
36 in the manner and time provided shall be deemed an admission of liabil-
37 ity and that a default judgment may be entered thereon.
38 (d) The notice of liability shall be prepared and mailed by the agency
39 or agencies designated by such city.
40 10. If an owner of a vehicle receives a notice of liability pursuant
41 to this section for any time period during which such vehicle was
42 reported to the police department as having been stolen, it shall be a
43 valid defense to an allegation of liability for a violation of subdivi-
44 sion (c) or (d) of section eleven hundred eighty of this article that
45 the vehicle had been reported to the police as stolen prior to the time
46 the violation occurred and had not been recovered by such time. For
47 purposes of asserting the defense provided by this subdivision it shall
48 be sufficient that an original incident form issued by the police on the
49 stolen vehicle be sent by first class mail to the parking violations
50 bureau of such city.
51 11. (a) An owner who is a lessor of a vehicle to which a notice of
52 liability was issued pursuant to subdivision nine of this section shall
53 not be liable for the violation of subdivision (c) or (d) of section
54 eleven hundred eighty of this article, provided that:
S. 7854 20
1 (i) prior to the violation, the lessor has filed with such parking
2 violations bureau in accordance with the provisions of section two
3 hundred thirty-nine of this chapter; and
4 (ii) within thirty-seven days after receiving notice from such bureau
5 of the date and time of a liability, together with the other information
6 contained in the original notice of liability, the lessor submits to
7 such bureau the correct name and address of the lessee of the vehicle
8 identified in the notice of liability at the time of such violation,
9 together with such other additional information contained in the rental,
10 lease or other contract document, as may be reasonably required by such
11 bureau pursuant to regulations that may be promulgated for such purpose.
12 (b) Failure to comply with subparagraph (ii) of paragraph (a) of this
13 subdivision shall render the owner liable for the penalty prescribed in
14 this section.
15 (c) Where the lessor complies with the provisions of paragraph (a) of
16 this subdivision, the lessee of such vehicle on the date of such
17 violation shall be deemed to be the owner of such vehicle for purposes
18 of this section, shall be subject to liability for such violation pursu-
19 ant to this section and shall be sent a notice of liability pursuant to
20 subdivision nine of this section.
21 12. If the owner liable for a violation of subdivision (c) or (d) of
22 section eleven hundred eighty of this article pursuant to this section
23 was not the operator of the vehicle at the time of the violation, the
24 owner may maintain an action for indemnification against the operator.
25 13. Nothing in this section shall be construed to limit the liability
26 of an operator of a vehicle for any violation of subdivision (c) or (d)
27 of section eleven hundred eighty of this article.
28 14. Any city that adopts a demonstration program pursuant to subdivi-
29 sion one of this section shall submit a report on the results of the use
30 of speed limit photo devices to the governor, the temporary president of
31 the senate and the speaker of the assembly by April first, two thousand
32 fifteen. Such report shall include, but not be limited to:
33 (a) a description of the locations where speed limit photo devices
34 were used;
35 (b) the number of violations recorded at each such location and in the
36 aggregate on a daily, weekly and monthly basis;
37 (c) the total number of notices of liability issued;
38 (d) the number of fines and total amount of fines paid after first
39 notice of liability;

41 cations including breakdowns of dispositions made;
42 (f) the total amount of revenue realized by such city; and
43 (g) quality of the adjudication process and its results.
44 § 11. The opening paragraph and paragraph (c) of subdivision 1 of
