New York bill A07490 mandates uniform duration periods for yellow or amber signals in communities with traffic-control devices equipped with photo.

New York bill A07490 amends the vehicle and traffic law to require that in communities with traffic-control devices equipped with photo monitoring instruments, a steady circular yellow or amber signal must be displayed to warn traffic that a green signal is ending and a red signal will follow. Additionally, all yellow or amber signals in such communities must have uniform duration periods. The bill defines "photo monitoring instrument" as cameras built into a traffic-control device's red signal light that provide photographs, videotapes, or other recorded images.
