2023 New York Laws › VAT - Vehicle and Traffic › Title 8 - Respective Powers of State and Local Authorities › Article 44-B - Transportation Network Company Services › 1700 - Controlling Authority.

  of law, the regulation of TNCs and TNC drivers is  governed  exclusively
  by  the  provisions of the chapter of the laws of two thousand seventeen
  which added this section and any rules promulgated by the state  through
  its  agencies  consistent  with  such  chapter. No county, town, city or
  village may enact a tax or any fee or other surcharge on a  TNC,  a  TNC
  driver,  or  a  TNC  vehicle  used by a TNC driver or require a license,
  permit, or additional insurance coverage or  any  other  limitations  or
  restrictions,  except  for  a prohibition on pick-up pursuant to section
  one hundred eighty-two of the general municipal law, for a  TNC,  a  TNC
  driver,  or  a  TNC  vehicle  used  by  a  TNC  driver,  where such fee,
  surcharge,  unauthorized  tax,  license,  permit,  insurance   coverage,
  limitation  or  restriction,  relates  to  facilitating or providing TNC
  prearranged trips, or subjects a TNC, a TNC driver,  or  a  TNC  vehicle
  used by a TNC driver to operational, or other requirements.
2. Nothing in this article shall authorize any TNC driver to pick-up a
  passenger  for  purposes  of  a  TNC  prearranged  trip in a city with a
  population of one million or more or where a county or city has opted to
  prohibit the same pursuant to  authority  consistent  with  section  one
  hundred  eighty-two  of  the  general  municipal  law,  except where the
  acceptance of a prearranged trip is authorized pursuant to  an  existing
  reciprocity agreement.
3.  Nothing  in this article shall: (a) limit the ability of a county,
  town, city or village to adopt or amend generally applicable limitations
  or  restrictions  relating  to  local  traffic  or  parking  control  as
  authorized  by  state  law;  or  (b) preempt any reciprocity agreements,
  including agreements entered  into  pursuant  to  section  four  hundred
  ninety-eight  of  this  chapter, between a county, town, city or village
  that relates to services regulated by section one hundred eighty-one  of
  the general municipal law.
4.  Nothing in this article shall be construed to limit the ability of
  a municipality or other governing authority that  owns  or  operates  an
  airport  located  outside  of a city with a population of one million or
  more from adopting regulations and  entering  into  contracts  or  other
  agreements  relating  to  the  duties  and  responsibilities  on airport
  property of a transportation network  company,  which  may  include  the
  imposition  and  payment  of  reasonable  fees,  provided  that any such
  contracts, agreements, or regulations shall not impose  any  license  or
  other operational requirement on a transportation network company driver
  or  transportation  network company vehicle that is inconsistent with or
  additional to the requirements of this article.
2023 New York Laws › VAT - Vehicle and Traffic › Title 8 - Respective Powers of State and Local Authorities › Article 44-C - Central Business District Tolling Program › 1701 - Legislative Findings and Declaration.

§  1701. Legislative findings and declaration. The ongoing failures of
  the   tracks,   signals,   switches,   electrical   power,   and   other
  transportation  infrastructure  throughout the subway system in the city
  of New York continue to have a significant  deleterious  impact  on  the
  health,  safety,  and  livelihood  of  commuters, tourists, resident New
  Yorkers, as well as business and commerce in the  metropolitan  commuter
  transportation  district, which is the recognized economic engine of the
  state of New York, and thereby have adversely affected  the  economy  of
  the  state of New York. Temporary actions have been taken to address the
  safety of subway, bus  and  commuter  rail  riders  in  the  short  term
  including an emergency declaration and increased capital funding for the
  subways  in  the  most  recently  adopted state budget. The legislature,
  however,  determines  that  a  long-term  and  sustainable  solution  is
  necessary  in  order to ensure stable and reliable funding to repair and
  revitalize this significantly important mass transit asset.
The legislature further finds and declares that traffic congestion  in
  the  city  of  New  York  ranks  second worst among cities in the United
  States and third worst  among  cities  in  the  world,  and  results  in
  significant  cost  to the New York metropolitan area economy and in turn
  the state's economy at estimates exceeding one hundred  billion  dollars
  over  the  next  five  years.  Travel  speeds  in the city of New York's
  central business district have dropped more than  seventeen  percent  in
  two  thousand sixteen to an average of 6.8 miles per hour and in Midtown
  Manhattan, the most congested area of the city-the area from fifty-ninth
  street to  thirty-fifth  street  and  from  ninth  avenue  to  the  east
  river-the  average  vehicular speed is 4.7 miles per hour. Congestion in
  these areas is crippling and impacts the everyday  lives  of  residents,
  commuters,  taxi and for-hire vehicle traffic, bus transit and emergency
  services, and is a significant contributor to decreased air quality.
These issues have been recognized by both the Fix NYC  Advisory  Panel
  and the Metropolitan Transportation Sustainability Advisory Workgroup as
  significant impediments to everyday New Yorkers.
In order to ensure a safe and efficient mass transit system within the
  city  of  New  York  and  to protect the public health and safety of New
  York's residents, a program to establish tolls for vehicles entering  or
  remaining  in  the  most  congested  area  of  the  state is found to be
  necessary and to be a matter of substantial state concern.

section one  hundred  one  of  this  chapter  or  a  qualifying  vehicle
transporting  a  person  with  disabilities  shall  be charged a central
business district toll if it enters or remains in the  central  business
district.  Application  for  such  toll  exemption shall be made in such
manner as prescribed by the Triborough bridge and tunnel  authority  and
shall contain such information as the authority may reasonably require.
3.  (a)  The  Triborough bridge and tunnel authority shall implement a
plan for credits, discounts and/or exemptions for tolls paid on  bridges
and  crossings  informed  by the recommendations of the traffic mobility
review board.
(b) The Triborough bridge and tunnel authority shall be authorized  to
provide  additional  credits,  discounts  and exemptions informed by the
recommendations of the traffic mobility review board and a traffic study
that considers impact.
4. The Triborough bridge and tunnel authority shall implement  a  plan
to  address  credits, discounts, and/or exemptions for for-hire vehicles
as  defined  by,  and  subject  to  a  surcharge  imposed  by,   article
twenty-nine-C  of  the  tax  law  for  a  for-hire  transportation trip,
informed by the recommendation of the traffic mobility review board.

§ 1805. Plea  of  guilty, how put in. The provisions of section 170.10
  of the criminal procedure law and the  provisions  of  section  eighteen
  hundred  seven  of this article may be waived, to the extent hereinafter
  indicated, by a defendant charged with a violation of any  provision  of
  the  tax  law or the transportation law regulating traffic, or a traffic
  infraction, as defined in this chapter, other than a third or subsequent
  speeding  violation  committed  within  a  period  of  eighteen  months,
  provided  that  he  shall  submit  to  the  local  criminal court having
  jurisdiction, in person, by duly authorized agent, by first  class  mail
  or  by  registered  or  certified  mail,  return  receipt  requested, an
  application setting  forth  (a)  the  nature  of  the  charge,  (b)  the
  information  or  instructions required by section eighteen hundred seven
  of this article  to  be  given  defendant  upon  arraignment,  (c)  that
  defendant  waives  arraignment in open court and the aid of counsel, (d)
  that he pleads guilty to the offense  as  charged,  (e)  that  defendant
  elects  and  requests  that  the  charge  be disposed of and the fine or
  penalty fixed by the court, pursuant to this section, (f) any  statement
  or  explanation  that  the  defendant  may desire to make concerning the
  offense charged and (g) that defendant makes all statements with respect
  to such application under penalty of perjury. This application shall  be
  in  such  form  as  the  commissioner shall prescribe and a copy thereof
  shall be handed to the defendant by the officer charging him  with  such
  offense.  Thereupon  the  local criminal court may proceed as though the
  defendant had been convicted upon  a  plea  of  guilty  in  open  court,
  provided,  however,  that  any  imposition  of fine or penalty hereunder
  shall be deemed tentative until such fine or  penalty  shall  have  been
  paid  and  discharged  in  full,  prior to which time such court, in its
  discretion,  may  annul  any  proceedings  hereunder,   including   such
  tentative  imposition  of  fine or penalty, and deny the application, in
  which event the charge shall be disposed of pursuant to  the  applicable
  provisions  of  law,  as  though  no proceedings had been had under this
  section. If upon receipt of the aforesaid application such  court  shall
  deny the same, it shall thereupon inform the defendant of this fact, and
  that he is required to appear before the said court at a stated time and
  place  to  answer  the  charge  which  shall  thereafter  be disposed of
  pursuant to the applicable provisions of law.

§ 1806. Plea  of  not  guilty  by  a  defendant charged with a traffic
  infraction. In addition to appearing personally to enter a plea  of  not
  guilty  to  a  violation  of  any  provision  of  the  tax  law  or  the
  transportation law regulating traffic, or to a  traffic  infraction  for
  the violation of any of the provisions of the vehicle and traffic law or
  of  any  local law, ordinance, order, rule or regulation relating to the
  operation of motor vehicles or motorcycles, a defendant may enter a plea
  of not guilty by mailing to the court of  appropriate  jurisdiction  the
  ticket  making  the  charge and a signed statement indicating such plea.
  Such plea must be sent: (a) by  registered  or  certified  mail,  return
  receipt  requested  or  by  first class mail; and (b) within forty-eight
  hours after receiving such ticket.  Upon  receipt  of  such  ticket  and
  statement,  the court shall advise the violator, by first class mail, of
  an appearance at which no testimony shall  be  taken.  If  the  motorist
  requests  a trial, the court shall set a trial date on a date subsequent
  to the date of the initial appearance and shall notify the defendant  of
  the  date  by  first  class mail but no warrant of arrest for failure to
  appear can be issued until the violator  is  notified  of  a  new  court
  appearance   date  by  registered  or  certified  mail,  return  receipt
  requested, and fails to appear.
2023 New York Laws › VAT - Vehicle and Traffic › Title 9 - Penalties and Disposition of Fines and Forfeitures › Article 45 - Penalties and Disposition of Fines and Forfeitures › 1807 - Provisions Applicable to Arraignments for Traffic Violations.

§ 1807. Provisions  applicable to arraignments for traffic violations.
  1. The local criminal court, upon the arraignment in  this  state  of  a
  resident  of  this  state  charged  with  a violation of the vehicle and
  traffic law, or other law or ordinance  relating  to  the  operation  of
  motor  vehicles  or motor cycles, and before accepting a plea, or in the
  case of such a defendant who  has  previously  pleaded  not  guilty,  as
  provided in section eighteen hundred six of this chapter, and who wishes
  to  change  or withdraw such plea, must inform the defendant at the time
  of his arraignment or appearance for trial in substance as follows:
A plea of guilty to this charge is equivalent to  a  conviction  after
  trial.   If you are convicted, not only will you be liable to a penalty,
  but in addition your license to drive a motor vehicle  or  motor  cycle,
  and  your certificate of registration, if any, are subject to suspension
  and revocation as prescribed by law.
The giving of the foregoing  instructions  by  means  of  a  statement
  printed in a noticeably distinct manner and in bold type in a size equal
  to  at  least  twelve  point  type, upon a summons or ticket issued to a
  person charged with any such offense shall  constitute  compliance  with
  the requirements of this section.
The  foregoing provisions of this section may be waived as provided in
  section eighteen hundred five of this chapter.
2. Upon the arraignment of any person under eighteen years of age  who
  resides  within the household of his parent or guardian upon a charge of
  a violation of the vehicle and traffic law or  other  law  or  ordinance
  relating  to  the  operation of motor vehicles or motor cycles, except a
  violation relating to parking, stopping or standing, the local  criminal
  court which arraigns him shall forthwith transmit written notice of such
  arraignment  to  the  parent or guardian of such minor person; provided,
  however, that if a conviction of such person  follows  such  arraignment
  upon  the same day, or in case such person waives arraignment and enters
  a plea of guilty to the  offense  as  charged  in  accordance  with  the
  provisions of section eighteen hundred five of this chapter, transmittal
  of notice of his conviction as provided in section five hundred fourteen
  of  this  chapter  shall  be  sufficient  and  the notice of arraignment
  hereunder need not be given; provided further  that  the  failure  of  a
  local  criminal court to transmit such notice of arraignment shall in no
  manner affect the validity of a conviction subsequently obtained.

§ 1808. Effect  of stay order on appeal from judgment of conviction of
an offense under this chapter.  (a)  When  an  appeal  is  taken  to  an
intermediate  appellate court from a conviction of an offense under this
chapter resulting in the suspension or  revocation  of  the  defendant's
motor  vehicle  operator's  license,  and a stay of execution is granted
ordering reinstatement of such license during the pendency and until the
determination of such appeal, service of a certified copy of  such  stay
order  by  mail upon the commissioner of motor vehicles shall be binding
upon the commissioner; and during a period of ninety days from the  date
such  stay  order  was  granted,  or until such appeal is determined, if
sooner than ninety days, such commissioner shall be stayed  from  taking
any  proceedings  under the vehicle and traffic law to suspend or revoke
such license on account of such conviction; and such order shall contain
appropriate provisions to that effect.
(b) For good cause shown, such stay may be extended by the  court,  in
its  discretion,  for additional periods not to exceed ninety days each;
such extension order or orders, when served  upon  the  commissioner  of
motor  vehicles  in the same manner as the original stay order, shall be
binding upon him to the same extent as the original stay order for  such
additional period or periods.
(c)  A  stay  order or orders issued pursuant to section 460.50 of the
criminal procedure law which purport to reinstate a license  during  the
pendency  of  an appeal from a conviction resulting in the suspension or
revocation of a license shall, for the purposes of  such  reinstatement,
be deemed to be issued in accordance with the provisions of this section
and the ninety day stay period authorized by this section shall apply.
