 Introduced by Sen. HARCKHAM -- 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 and the public officers law,
 in relation to establishing a speed zone camera demonstration program
 in the village of Mount Kisco; and providing for the repeal of such
 provisions upon expiration thereof

 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 1180-h to read as follows:
 3 § 1180-h. Owner liability for failure of operator to comply with
 4 certain posted maximum speed limits. (a) 1. Notwithstanding any other
 5 provision of law, the village of Mount Kisco is hereby authorized to
 6 establish a demonstration program imposing monetary liability on the
 7 owner of a vehicle for failure of an operator thereof to comply with
 8 posted maximum speed limits in a speed zone within such village. Such
 9 demonstration program shall empower the village of Mount Kisco to
 10 install photo speed violation monitoring systems within no more than
 11 eight speed zones within such village at any one time. In selecting a
 12 speed zone in which to install and operate a photo speed violation moni-
 13 toring system, the village shall consider criteria including, but not
 14 limited to, the speed data, crash history, and the roadway geometry
 15 applicable to such speed zone.
 16 2. No photo speed violation monitoring system shall be used in a speed
 17 zone unless (i) on the day it is to be used it has successfully passed a
 18 self-test of its functions; and (ii) it has undergone an annual cali-
 19 bration check performed pursuant to paragraph four of this subdivision.
 20 The village shall install signs giving notice that a photo speed
 21 violation monitoring system is in use to be mounted on advance warning
 22 signs notifying motor vehicle operators of such upcoming speed zone

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

 2 conformance with standards established in the MUTCD.
 3 3. Operators of photo speed violation monitoring systems shall have
 4 completed training in the procedures for setting up, testing, and oper-
 5 ating such systems. Each such operator shall complete and sign a daily
 6 set-up log for each such system that they operate that (i) states the
 7 date and time when, and the location where, the system was set up that
 8 day, and (ii) states that such operator successfully performed, and the
 9 system passed, the self-tests of such system before producing a recorded
 10 image that day. The village shall retain each such daily log until the
 11 later of the date on which the photo speed violation monitoring system
 12 to which it applies has been permanently removed from use or the final
 13 resolution of all cases involving notices of liability issued based on
 14 photographs, microphotographs, videotape or other recorded images
 15 produced by such system.
 16 4. Each photo speed violation monitoring system shall undergo an annu-
 17 al calibration check performed by an independent calibration laboratory
 18 which shall issue a signed certificate of calibration. The village shall
 19 keep each such annual certificate of calibration on file until the final
 20 resolution of all cases involving a notice of liability issued d
