 AN ACT to amend the vehicle and traffic law, in relation to providing an

 The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
 bly, do enact as follows:

 3 6. In the event that a person charged with a traffic violation or
 4 parking violation does not answer within the time specified and such
 5 circumstance results in a default judgment of a fine, and such person
 6 fails to pay such fine because such person serves on fulltime active
 7 military duty, as defined in section one of the military law, the
 8 commissioner shall not suspend such person's license, provided such
 9 person or such person's representative submits proof satisfactory to the
 10 commissioner that such person is a member of the military forces and is
 11 engaged in fulltime active military duty. Such person's license shall be
 12 valid for up to six months after such person's release from fulltime
 13 active military duty.
 14 § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.

 EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
 [ ] is old law to be omitted.
