A 1874 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Relates to monetary penalties that a parking violations bureau may impose for illegally idling the engine of a motor vehicle

This bill (A 1874) increases the maximum monetary penalty for illegally idling a vehicle's engine while parked, stopped, or standing in designated areas. It raises the cap from $50 to $150 per violation for idling offenses in cities with populations over one million (like New York City), while keeping other parking violation penalties at $50 or $100. The bill amends both state vehicle and traffic law and New York City's administrative code to reflect this higher penalty for idling violations specifically. It directly affects drivers who violate idling restrictions in large urban areas, without changing the underlying idling ban or other parking rules.
