Kathy Hochul\u2019s legislation will allow the pilot program to target so-called \u201csuper speeders\u201d in New York City, with the potential to expand into other parts of the state, WABC <a href=\"https:\/\/abc7ny.com\/post\/new-york-gov-kathy-hochul-announces-plan-target-drivers-speed-habitually\/19179249\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">reported<\/a>. Drivers with 16 or more speeding violations in a one-year period qualify for this designation and must install an \u201cintelligent speed assistant device\u201d in their vehicle through the program.<\/p>\n<p>The violations that can cause this come from school zone cameras and red light cameras, according to the outlet.<\/p>\n<p>The \u201cintelligent speed assistant device\u201d installed in vehicles will prevent drivers from going over the speed limit. The device must be installed within 45 days of notification, and if it is not, the vehicle\u2019s registration will be revoked, Hochul said in a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=xT2tp7UB7R4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">press conference<\/a> Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p>Hochul signed this legislation as part of the FY27 Enacted Budget with the stated purpose to make New York City traffic safer, according to the governor\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.governor.ny.gov\/news\/keeping-new-yorkers-safe-governor-hochul-signs-legislation-strengthen-public-safety-and-make\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">website<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKeeping New Yorkers safe is my top priority which is why I\u2019m proud to deliver record investments in law enforcement to crack down on crime, strengthen critical protections for New Yorkers and keep communities across our state safe from harm,\u201d Hochul said via a Wednesday <a href=\"https:\/\/www.governor.ny.gov\/news\/keeping-new-yorkers-safe-governor-hochul-signs-legislation-strengthen-public-safety-and-make\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">press release<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Depending on the results of the \u201cSuper Speeder\u201d pilot initiative in New York City, the state may allow other communities in the Empire State to adopt the program as well, according to WABC. Speed devices were installed in 50 New York City vehicles as part of a separate pilot program four years ago.<\/p>\n<p>Washington, D.C. and Virginia already have similar intelligent speed assistant laws in place.
