Bus safety laws pushed after deadly crash
Assemblyman Scott Gray plans to push for a bill requiring passengers on commercial buses to wear seat belts when he returns to Albany in January. The bill, which can be viewed at the following link: https://www.nysenate.gov/legislation/bills/2025/A5915, aligns with safety standards implemented on airplanes and includes pre-trip safety instructions and seatbelt checks. Gray's proposal was influenced by recent tragic bus accidents in New York, sparking a need for increased safety measures. Additionally, he is pushing for another bill that calls for regular safety inspections of motor coaches with more than 16 passengers, to ensure compliance with safety regulations. Both bills await sponsorship from a state senator.
