Camera enforcement — owner ≠ driver (NY)

Legal basis

NY’s red-light, bus-lane, and speed-camera statutes create a civil liability on the registered owner. The owner may defeat liability by submitting a sworn affidavit identifying the actual driver or attesting to theft/transfer at the time of the infraction.
