 2025-2026 Regular Sessions

 IN SENATE

 March 3, 2025
 ___________

 Introduced by Sen. LANZA -- read twice and ordered printed, and when
 printed to be committed to the Committee on Transportation

 AN ACT to amend the vehicle and traffic law, in relation to the defi-
 nitions of the terms "impaired" and "intoxication" for the purposes of
 such law

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

 1 Section 1. The vehicle and traffic law is amended by adding a new
 2 section 119-c to read as follows:
 3 § 119-c. Impaired. Impairment is reached when a driver has voluntarily
 4 consumed or ingested a substance or combination of substances to the
 5 extent that the driver has impaired, to any extent, the physical and
 6 mental abilities which a driver is expected to possess in order to oper-
 7 ate a vehicle as a reasonable and prudent driver.
 8 § 2. The vehicle and traffic law is amended by adding a new section
 9 120-a to read as follows:
 10 § 120-a. Intoxication. Intoxication is a greater degree of impairment
 11 which is reached when a driver has voluntarily consumed or ingested a
 12 substance or combination of substances to the extent that the driver is
 13 incapable of employing the physical and mental abilities which a driver
 14 is expected to possess in order to operate a vehicle as a reasonable and
 15 prudent driver.
 16 § 3. Section 1192 of the vehicle and traffic law is amended by adding
 17 a new subdivision 13 to read as follows:
 18 13. It shall be an affirmative defense to a charge under any subdivi-
 19 sion of this section that the operator suffered an allergic reaction or
 20 medical emergency rather than being impaired by the substance or combi-
 21 nation of substances. Provided, however, that no defense shall be
 22 available if any such consumed or ingested substance is contained in
 23 section thirty-three hundred six of the public health law.
 24 § 4. This act shall take effect on the first of November next succeed-
 25 ing the date on which it shall have become a law.

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