Provides for any city, town or village in the state of New York to control the town speed limits

Summary

The bill lets each municipality in New York establish its own maximum speed limits on local streets, as long as they are no lower than 25 mph, except for school zones which can be as low as 15 mph for a short distance. It applies only to roads not maintained by the state or county transportation departments. The change takes effect immediately, giving local officials more control over traffic safety.
