Among the unprecedented opportunities offered by this technology are inclusive mobility options to benefit disadvantaged, disabled and elderly residents; congestion and emissions mitigation; improved livable land use, and better road usage. Further, the legislature has amended section 2 of part FF of chapter 55 of the laws of 2017, relating to motor vehicles equipped with autonomous vehi- cle technology, as amended by section 2 of part H of chapter 58 of the laws of 2018, as amended by section 1 of part M of chapter 58 of the laws of 2019, to allow for a two-year testing program for automobile manufacturers and technology leaders to test and demonstrate automated vehicle technology in New York, which will expire and be deemed repealed April 1, 2021.
