Such  compact  or   agreement  shall provide that if a registration of a motor vehicle would   be suspended or revoked pursuant to paragraph d of subdivision three  of   section  five  hundred  ten of this chapter, or pursuant to a comparable   law or regulation of another state, because a registrant of  such  motor   vehicle failed to pay tolls and related fees, or have such tolls or fees   dismissed  or transferred, then the state issuing the registration shall   likewise suspend or revoke the  registration  or  bar  renewal  of  such   registration,  until  such  registrant  has  paid such tolls and fees or   complied with the rules and regulations of the  tolling  authority  that   imposed  such  tolls  and  fees.  Such  compact  or agreement shall also   provide that  no  such  action  by  a  state  against  a  motor  vehicle   registration shall be taken pursuant to such compact or agreement unless   the  tolling  authority in the other state provides notice, due process,   an opportunity to be heard and appeal  protections  for  registrants  of   motor  vehicles,  and  allows motor vehicle registrants in this state to   present evidence by mail, telephone, electronic means or other means  to   invoke  rights of due process without having to appear personally in the   jurisdiction where the violations occurred.b.

NY Veh & Traf L § 520 (2021)
2021 New York Laws VAT - Vehicle and Traffic Title 5 - Drivers' Licenses Article 21 - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Program 520 - Statement of Findings and Declaration of Purpose.

§ 520. Statement   of   findings   and  declaration  of  purpose.  The   ever-increasing  number  of  accidents,  personal  injuries  and  deaths   resulting  from  alcohol or drug-related traffic offenses is a matter of   great  concern  to  the  legislature.  The  diminished   perception   of   intoxicated and impaired operators of motor vehicles presents a constant   and  intolerable  threat  to the lives and well-being of the citizens of   the  state.  Efforts  aimed  at  alleviating  this  threat  have  proven   inadequate.  The  public interest in the cause of highway safety will be   well  served  by  the  implementation  of   a   permanent   program   of   rehabilitation  for those operators convicted of alcohol or drug-related   traffic  offenses  and  certain  operators  who  have  been  adjudicated   youthful  offenders  for  alcohol  or drug-related traffic offenses. The   commissioner of motor vehicles should have the  authority  to  offer  to   such  operators  an opportunity for rehabilitation, thereby reducing the   threat aimed at themselves and the people of the state.

§ 523-a. Driver improvement clinic programs. In addition to the driver   rehabilitation  program  authorized by section eleven hundred ninety-six   of  this  chapter,  the  commissioner  may  establish,  by   regulation,   guidelines  for alcohol and highway safety programs. The purpose of such   programs should be to inform participants of the effects of  alcohol  on   driving,  to  discuss  problem  drinking  and  its  effects,  to provide   assistance to individuals with referral to alcoholism treatment agencies   and to provide instruction with respect to proper driving techniques and   driver attitude. The commissioner shall establish criteria for requiring   attendance at such clinics, and may, pending attendance at such  clinic,   suspend  the  driver's  license  or privilege of any person who fails to   attend such clinic as required by such regulations.  Such  criteria  may   provide for the required attendance at such clinic of any person who, as   a  result  of the conviction for a moving traffic violation, is referred   by the trial court for such attendance. The commissioner shall establish   a fee to be paid by any person who attends any such  program.  Such  fee   shall  be  used to defray the ongoing expenses of the program. Where the   commissioner has approved any driver improvement  program  conducted  by   local  authorities,  any such fee shall be paid to the agency conducting   such program.

He  shall  have  the   authority to establish such programs on a limited, experimental basis in   order  to  assist in such feasibility study provided any such program is   funded by any source other than state funds, or if any such  program  is   to  be  funded with state funds, then he may establish such program only   with the approval of the director of the division of the budget.
