"New York City's worst drivers ought to be wary of Hochul's executive budget proposal to allow the Big Apple to order the installation of speed limiters in the cars of recidivist speeders. Streetsblog first reported that Hochul will propose giving New York City the right to introduce a pilot program that would forcibly lower the speeds of chronically reckless drivers."
"Hochul's executive budget proposal would seek the installation of automated speed enforcement on additional roadways in New York for the purpose of keeping road workers safe. Currently, speed cameras are only found in New York City school zones, the state Thruway and select highway and work zones. Technology that warns workers of vehicles that enter closed areas would be deployed, as well as advanced legal protections for highway workers who face assault."
Governor Hochul proposes transportation measures prioritizing street and transit safety, regulatory streamlining, and broader access to new travel modes. The plan would allow New York City to pilot installation of speed limiters on vehicles of repeat speeders and expand automated speed enforcement to additional roadways to protect highway and work-zone employees. The proposal includes deploying technology to warn workers of vehicles entering closed areas and strengthening legal protections for assaulted highway workers. The plan would require mandatory approved rider training for new motorcyclists and advance transit projects such as expansion of the Second Avenue Subway while aiming to reduce permitting red tape.
