Prevents suspension or revocation of a domestic violence victim's driver's license or registration for non-payment or lapse of insurance coverage.
This bill amends the vehicle and traffic law to prevent the suspension or revocation of a domestic violence victim's driver's license or registration for non-payment or lapse of insurance coverage. It allows for the termination of such revocation or suspension order upon a proper showing of current insurance and a court order or attorney affirmation that the individual is a victim of domestic violence. The burden of proof lies on the victim to demonstrate lack of knowledge about the non-payment or lapse and that such failure resulted solely from the negligence or malfeasance of another.
