BILL NUMBER:S6385 REVISED 1/23/14 TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the vehicle and traffic law, in relation to the surrender of certificates of registration and number plates of all motor vehicles which a person has registered where such person has a suspended or revoked license SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS: Section one of the bill amends the vehicle and traffic law by adding a new section 403-c.
