Current through Register Vol. 46, No. 28, July 10, 2024
Article 46 of the Vehicle and Traffic Law provides for
						the issuance of certificates of title for certain vehicles, which certificates
						will constitute the ownership document for such vehicles. The registration
						certificate which will be issued for such titled vehicles shall only be
						evidence of the right to operate such vehicle upon the public highways. The
						intent of article 46 is to provide for the issuance of titles and the recording
						of liens thereon on vehicles which are classified as 1973 or later model year
						vehicles, while retaining the system under which the registration certificate
						served as proof of ownership, and liens are recorded under the Uniform
						Commercial Code on vehicles which are classified as 1972 or older model year
						vehicles. The commissioner is empowered to promulgate regulations and to
						specify forms to implement the provisions of that article. The following
						regulations are intended to supplement the provision of article 46.

				  employment or other destination on a regular daily basis provided that any
				  monies paid by the passengers to the van pool vehicle owner, lessee or operator
				  are solely for the recovery of some or all expenses related directly to the
				  transport of the passengers, including tolls, fuel, insurance and depreciation
				  on a not-for-profit basis.
(b)
				  Vehicle size. Only vehicles which have an adult seating capacity of not less
				  than six and not more than fifteen passengers in addition to the driver may
				  qualify for van pool plates. Ordinary passenger vehicles will not qualify for
				  van pool plates. Suburban (station wagon) type vehicles will qualify for van
				  pool plates only if such vehicle is equipped with enough seats to accommodate
				  not less than six and not more than fifteen passengers.
(c) Vehicles may not operate under the New
				  York City Taxi and Limousine Commission or Department of Transportation
				  certification. A vehicle will not be qualified for van pool plates if it is

				  Commission and/or has a currently valid certificate as a common carrier or a
				  currently valid permit issued by the New York State Department of
