Requires electric scooter service platforms to maintain liability insurance and provide proof of insurance.

New York S09054 mandates that electric scooter service platforms maintain liability insurance and provide proof of insurance upon request. The policy must cover at least $25,000 per occurrence for accidents involving app-based electric scooters. Failure to produce proof of insurance is not an offense but is presumptive evidence that the scooter is being operated without insurance. The act defines "digital network" and "electric scooter service platform" and takes effect 180 days after becoming law.
