Enacts the "vehicular violence accountability act"

The Vehicular Violence Accountability Act (S 2114) defines vehicular violence and establishes new related offenses.

These courses will educate applicants on the dangers of vehicular crimes that cause injury or death to another individual. Additionally, it creates a new article in the penal law, outlining specific crimes such as serious physical injury or death by vehicle.
