Directs the department of motor vehicles to create a plan to increase the availability of wheelchair accessible vehicles in New York state outside of the city of New York

Summary

The legislation requires the New York Department of Motor Vehicles to create a statewide plan, broken down by each county outside New York City, to increase the number of wheelchair‑accessible vehicles. It defines technical standards for those vehicles and calls for a report on existing local rules, giving local officials data and benchmarks to improve mobility for wheelchair users. The plan’s data will be compiled into a mapping platform to show where gaps exist.
