Establishes a school speed zone camera demonstration program in the city of Schenectady
S 5677 establishes a 5-year demonstration program in Schenectady allowing the city to use photo speed cameras in school zones to issue fines to vehicle owners for speeding. The program applies during school hours, before/after school, and during 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). Vehicle owners receive notices of liability based on camera evidence, which must be destroyed after case resolution or one year, whichever comes later. The program expires December 31, 2030.
