Advocates such as Amy Cohen, for whom the law was named, spent years lobbying Albany, including a hunger strike, to enable NYC to lower speed limits.
The newly established 'Sammy's Law' allows New York City to reduce speed limits from 25 to 20 mph, addressing long-standing safety concerns in urban planning.
The expansion of NYC's red light camera program from 150 to 600 intersections is a significant step towards enhancing traffic safety through stricter enforcement measures.
The efforts culminated in Albany, marking a transformative moment for urban policy, though debates linger about the law's potential impact on road safety.
