  wide-based single tires on certain vehicles

  THE  PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-
BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  Section 1. The third undesignated paragraph of paragraph (f) of subdi-
vision 15 of section 385 of the vehicle and traffic law, as  amended  by
chapter 277 of the laws of 2014, is amended to read as follows:
  No  vehicle  having a model year of two thousand six or newer shall be
issued a permit pursuant to this paragraph  unless  each  axle  of  such
vehicle  or  combination  of vehicles, other than steerable or trackable
axles, is equipped with two tires on each side of the axle, OR  EQUIPPED
WITH  WIDE-BASED SINGLE TIRES ON EACH SIDE OF THE AXLE, any air pressure
controls for lift axles are located outside the cab of the  vehicle  and
are  beyond  the  reach  of occupants of the cab while the vehicle is in
motion, the weight on any grouping of two or more axles  is  distributed
such  that  no  axle in the grouping carries less than eighty percent of
any other axle in the grouping and any liftable  axle  is  steerable  or
trackable; and, further provided, after December thirty-first, two thou-
sand nineteen, no permit shall be issued pursuant to this paragraph to a
vehicle  of  any  model year that does not meet the requirements of this
provision, except that such permits  may  be  issued  prior  to  January
first,  two thousand [twenty] TWENTY-TWO to a vehicle that does not meet
the requirement concerning axle grouping weight distribution, but  meets
all other requirements of this section.
  S 2. This act shall take effect on the one hundred eightieth day after
it shall have become a law.


 EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
                      [ ] is old law to be omitted.
