 IN ASSEMBLY

 February 4, 2025
 ___________

 Introduced by M. of A. SCHIAVONI -- read once and referred to the
 Committee on Transportation

 AN ACT to amend the navigation law, in relation to providing an
 exemption from certain laws for operators of law enforcement and fire
 department vessels responding to emergencies on the navigable waters
 of the state

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

 1 Section 1. The navigation law is amended by adding a new section 39-c
 2 to read as follows:
 3 § 39-c. Law enforcement and fire department vessels. 1. The operator
 4 of a law enforcement or fire department vessel, when involved in an
 5 emergency operation on the navigable waters of the state, may exercise
 6 the privileges set forth in subdivision two of this section, but subject
 7 to the conditions set forth in subdivisions three and four of this
 8 section.
 9 2. The operator of a law enforcement or fire department vessel may
 10 disregard any law, rule or regulation of this state or any local law or
 11 ordinance of a municipality of this state governing the movement or
 12 turning of vessels upon such navigable waters.
 13 3. The privileges granted to the operator of a law enforcement or fire
 14 department vessel pursuant to this section shall apply only when audible
 15 signals are sounded from any such vessel while in motion by bell, horn,
 16 siren, electronic device or exhaust whistle as may be reasonably neces-
 17 sary, and when the vessel is equipped with at least one lighted lamp so
 18 that from any direction, under normal atmospheric conditions from a
 19 distance of five hundred feet from such vessel, at least one blue or red
 20 light will be displayed and visible.
 21 4. The provisions of this section shall not relieve the operator of a
 22 law enforcement or fire department vessel from the duty to operate such
 23 vessel with due regard for the safety of all persons, nor shall such
 24 provisions protect the operator from the consequences of such operator's
 25 reckless disregard for the safety of others.
 26 § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.

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