Provides for the exemption of disabled veterans of the armed forces of the United States from New York state thruway tolls
This bill exempts New York State-resident disabled veterans certified by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs or Department of Defense for war-related disabilities from paying tolls on the New York State Thruway. It amends two laws to create this exemption, requiring veterans to have official certification of disability payments tied to wartime service. The change directly affects eligible veterans by removing a financial burden for using the Thruway. The policy modifies existing toll collection rules without altering other Thruway fees or requirements.
