Advocates were disappointed on Monday as the New York State Assembly decided not to pass the Stop Super Speeders bill, which aimed to install speed limiters in cars of repeat offenders. This bill was seen as a straightforward solution to enhance street safety. Families of victims of reckless driving condemned the decision, expressing frustration at the Assembly's inability to support what they believe is a common-sense measure to prevent further tragedies. The Senate sponsor of the bill vowed to continue the fight for its passage in the next legislative session.
"It is outrageous that the New York State Assembly is hiding behind lame excuses once again...we will be welcoming into our horrible club more bereaved families whose loved ones were killed in preventable crashes."
"Laws that enforce the speed limit should not be controversial, but I'll continue to fight until we pass it...we owe nothing less to all those who have lost a loved one to reckless driving."
