The vehicle and traffic law is amended by adding a new 2 section 1111-f to read as follows: 3 § 1111-f. Owner liability for failure of operator to comply with 4 traffic-control indications. (a) 1. Notwithstanding any other provision 5 of law, the town of Wallkill, in the county of Orange is hereby author- 6 ized and empowered to adopt and amend a local law or ordinance estab- 7 lishing a demonstration program imposing monetary liability on the owner 8 of a vehicle for failure of an operator thereof to comply with traffic- 9 control indications in such town in accordance with the provisions of 10 this section. Such demonstration program shall empower such town to 11 install and operate traffic-control signal photo violation-monitoring 12 devices at no more than four intersections within such town at any one 13 time. 14 2. Such demonstration program shall utilize necessary technologies to 15 ensure, to the extent practicable, that photographs produced by such 16 traffic-control signal photo violation-monitoring systems shall not 17 include images that identify the driver, the passengers, or the contents 18 of the vehicle. Provided, however, that no notice of liability issued 19 pursuant to this section shall be dismissed solely because a photograph 20 or photographs allow for the identification of the contents of a vehi- 21 cle, provided that such town has made a reasonable effort to comply with 22 the provisions of this paragraph.

For purposes of this section, 14 "traffic-control signal photo violation-monitoring system" shall mean a 15 vehicle sensor installed to work in conjunction with a traffic-control 16 signal which automatically produces two or more photographs, two or more 17 microphotographs, a videotape or other recorded images of each vehicle 18 at the time it is used or operated in violation of subdivision (d) of 19 section eleven hundred eleven of this article. 20 (d) A certificate, sworn to or affirmed by a technician employed by 21 the town of Wallkill in which the charged violation occurred, or a 22 facsimile thereof, based upon inspection of photographs, microphoto- 23 graphs, videotape or other recorded images produced by traffic-control 24 signal photo violation-monitoring system, shall be prima facie evidence 25 of the facts contained therein. Any photographs, microphotographs, vide- 26 otape or other recorded images evidencing such a violation shall be 27 available for inspection in any proceeding to adjudicate the liability 28 for such violation pursuant to a local law or ordinance adopted pursuant 29 to this section. 30 (e) An owner liable for a violation of subdivision (d) of section 31 eleven hundred eleven of this article pursuant to a local law or ordi- 32 nance adopted pursuant to this section shall be liable for monetary 33 penalties in accordance with a schedule of fines and penalties to be set 34 forth in such local law or ordinance, except that if such town by local 35 law has authorized the adjudication of such owner liability by a parking 36 violations bureau, such schedule shall be promulgated by such bureau. 37 The liability of the owner pursuant to this section shall not exceed 38 fifty dollars for each violation; provided, however, that such local law 39 or ordinance may provide for an additional penalty not in excess of 40 twenty-five dollars for each violation for the failure to respond to a 41 notice of liability within the prescribed time period. 42 (f) An imposition of liability under a local law or ordinance adopted 43 pursuant to this section shall not be deemed a conviction as an operator 44 and shall not be made part of the operating record of the person upon 45 whom such liability is imposed nor shall it be used for insurance 46 purposes in the provision of motor vehicle insurance coverage. 47 (g) 1. A notice of liability shall be sent by first class mail to each 48 person alleged to be liable as an owner for a violation of subdivision 49 (d) of section eleven hundred eleven of this article pursuant to this 50 section. Personal delivery on the owner shall not be required. A manual 51 or automatic record of mailing prepared in the ordinary course of busi- 52 ness shall be prima facie evidence of the facts contained therein. 53 2.

For purposes 24 of asserting the defense provided by this subdivision it shall be suffi- 25 cient that a certified copy of the police report on the stolen vehicle 26 be sent by first class mail to the traffic violations bureau, court 27 having jurisdiction or parking violations bureau. 28 (j) 1.

(I) In such town which, by local law, has authorized the adjudi- 50 cation of liability imposed upon owners by this section by a parking 51 violations bureau, an owner who is a lessor of a vehicle to which a 52 notice of liability was issued pursuant to subdivision (g) of this 53 section shall not be liable for the violation of subdivision (d) of 54 section eleven hundred eleven of this article, provided that:S. 1696 4 1 (A) prior to the violation, the lessor has filed with the bureau in 2 accordance with the provisions of section two hundred thirty-nine of 3 this chapter; and 4 (B) within thirty-seven days after receiving notice from the bureau of 5 the date and time of a liability, together with the other information 6 contained in the original notice of liability, the lessor submits to the 7 bureau the correct name and address of the lessee of the vehicle identi- 8 fied in the notice of liability at the time of such violation, together 9 with such other additional information contained in the rental, lease or 10 other contract document, as may be reasonably required by the bureau 11 pursuant to regulations that may be promulgated for such purpose. 12 (II) Failure to comply with clause (B) of subparagraph (I) of this 13 paragraph shall render the owner liable for the penalty described in 14 this section. 15 (III) Where the lessor complies with the provisions of this paragraph, 16 the lessee of such vehicle on the date of such violation shall be deemed 17 to be the owner of such vehicle for purposes of this section, shall be 18 subject to liability for such violation pursuant to this section and 19 shall be sent a notice of liability pursuant to subdivision (g) of this 20 section. 21 (k) 1.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this section, no owner of a 26 vehicle shall be subject to a monetary fine imposed pursuant to this 27 section if the operator of such vehicle was operating such vehicle with- 28 out the consent of the owner at the time such operator failed to obey a 29 traffic-control indication. For purposes of this subdivision there shall 30 be a presumption that the operator of such vehicle was operating such 31 vehicle with the consent of the owner at the time such operator failed 32 to obey a traffic-control indication. 33 (1) Nothing in this section shall be construed to limit the liability 34 of an operator of a vehicle for any violation of subdivision (d) of 35 section eleven hundred eleven of this article. 36 (m) In any such town which adopts a demonstration program pursuant to 37 subdivision (a) of this section, such town shall submit an annual report 38 on the results of the use of a traffic-control signal photo violation 39 monitoring system to the governor, the temporary president of the senate 40 and the speaker of the assembly on or before June first, two thousand 41 nineteen, and on the same date in each succeeding year in which the 42 demonstration program is operable.
