Establishes a school speed zone camera demonstration program in the city of Schenectady
This bill establishes a 5-year demonstration program allowing Schenectady to use photo enforcement cameras in school zones to issue fines to vehicle owners for speeding. The program would operate during school hours and student activities in up to 20 school zones, with strict requirements for camera calibration, daily testing, and privacy protections (blurring driver/vehicle details in images). It directly affects vehicle owners driving through Schenectady school zones during specified times, with fines issued to the registered owner, not the driver. The program expires December 31, 2030, and includes safeguards like mandatory warning signs and restricted use of recorded images.
