Relates to requiring navigation systems which utilize GPS technology to provide the actual height of bridges and overpasses along proposed routes

S 6197 requires navigation systems using GPS technology sold or offered in New York to display the legal clearance height of bridges and elevated structures along proposed driving routes. This directly affects navigation system manufacturers and sellers operating in New York State. The bill mandates that systems must provide this clearance information unless they include accurate, updated clearance data plus clear instructions directing drivers to verify their vehicle's height against restrictions. The requirement applies to all routes generated by user requests, aligning with existing state law requiring physical height signs on bridges. The bill is currently referred to the Consumer Protection committee.
