 owner's [personal motor vehicle] POLICY OF liability [insurer] INSURANCE
 OR OTHER MOTOR VEHICLE  INSURANCE  may  exclude  any  and  all  coverage
 afforded  under  [its]  THE  policy, provided the shared vehicle owner's
 insurer notified its insured that it shall have no duty to indemnify  or
 defend  any  person or [organization] ENTITY for liability for any loss,
 DEATH, OR INJURY that occurs during the peer-to-peer car sharing period;
 and
   (ii) any insurance or physical damage protection offered  pursuant  to
 paragraph  (b) of subdivision two of this section or [subsection (e) of]
 section three thousand four hundred fifty-eight of  the  insurance  law,

 INJURIES that occur outside of the peer-to-peer car sharing period.
   (e) ensure that the shared vehicle owner acknowledges upon  or  before
 enrollment  in  a  peer-to-peer  car sharing program, and is notified in
 plain conspicuous language before each car sharing  period,  that  state
 law  may  impose  liability for injuries to person or property resulting
 from the negligence in the use or operation of  the  shared  vehicle  by
 shared  vehicle  drivers  for judgments exceeding the coverage limits of
 insurance in effect during the car sharing period. The subsequent notice
 required under this subsection may be provided electronically, including
 by electronic mail and  hyperlink  to  a  website  explaining  insurance
 coverages  and  vicarious liability or other substantially similar means
 of notice.
   5. At the time a vehicle is enrolled in the peer-to-peer  car  sharing
 program,  the  peer-to-peer car sharing [platform] PROGRAM ADMINISTRATOR
 shall file with the commissioner of motor vehicles,  in  such  form  and
 manner  as  such  commissioner  may require, a statement identifying the
 shared vehicle and proof of a group policy  applicable  to  such  shared

 vehicle  as enrolled in the peer-to-peer car sharing program and provide
 proof of a group policy applicable to such shared  vehicle  pursuant  to
 the  insurance  law  in  such vehicle or registration record in a manner
 accessible to the public.  Failure of a peer-to-peer car sharing  [plat-
 form]  PROGRAM ADMINISTRATOR to comply with the provisions of this arti-
 cle may result in penalties [which may include suspension or  revocation
 of license as provided by law].

 insurance is unavailable  from  authorized  insurers,  the  program  may
 acquire  such  group  insurance  with  an excess line broker pursuant to
 section two thousand one hundred eighteen of the insurance law;
   (c) The obligation to determine whether the insurance required by this
 section is unavailable from insurers authorized to  write  insurance  in
 this  state  shall  be  made  prior to the initial placement and at each
 renewal of a policy.
   (d) Compliance with the excess [and surplus] line statutes  and  regu-
 lations  of this state shall be performed with respect to the group as a
 whole and not with respect to individual group members.
 A. 8828                            15
 
   (e) A group policy provided for in this section shall  not  include  a
 mandatory  arbitration  clause  in  a  policy  issued  pursuant  to this

 car sharing program insurers  providing  coverages  under  section  nine
 hundred [two] ONE of this article shall provide financial responsibility
 for  any  bodily  injury, death, or damage to property in amounts not to
 exceed those stated in the peer-to-peer car  sharing  program  agreement
 and  not  less than those amounts required in section nine hundred [two]
 ONE of this article, and the peer-to-peer car sharing [program] ADMINIS-
 TRATOR shall retain such liability irrespective of a lapse in the  group
 policy or any other insurance policy or financial security maintained by
 the [program] ADMINISTRATOR.
   2.  The insurer or insurers providing group liability insurance to the
 peer-to-peer car sharing program pursuant to section nine hundred  [two]
 ONE  of  this  article  shall be primary during each car sharing period.
 Provided however, where: (a) a good faith dispute exists  regarding  who
 was  in  control of the vehicle when the loss, DEATH, OR INJURY occurred
 giving rise to such claim or whether the loss, DEATH, OR INJURY occurred
 outside of the car sharing period; and (b) the peer-to-peer car  sharing
 program  ADMINISTRATOR  does  not  have available, did not retain, or is
 otherwise  unable  to  provide  information  demonstrating  who  was  in
 POSSESSION  OR  control  at  the  time  of the loss, DEATH, OR INJURY or
 whether the loss, DEATH, OR INJURY occurred outside of the  car  sharing
 period,  the  shared vehicle owner's private motor vehicle insurer shall
 indemnify insurer or insurers providing group  liability  INSURANCE,  to
 the  extent  of its obligation under the applicable insurance policy, if
 it is determined that the loss, DEATH, OR INJURY occurred outside of the
 peer-to-peer car sharing period.  The peer-to-peer car  sharing  program
 ADMINISTRATOR  shall  notify  the  [registered]  SHARED  VEHICLE owner's
 insurer of any such dispute within fifteen days of becoming  aware  that
 such a dispute exists.
   3.  In  the  event that the shared vehicle owner or the shared vehicle
 owner's personal motor vehicle insurer is named  as  a  defendant  in  a
 civil  action  for  a loss, DEATH, or injury that occurs during any time
 within the peer-to-peer car  sharing  period,  or  otherwise  under  the
 direct  and immediate control of a peer-to-peer car sharing program, the
 peer-to-peer car sharing program ADMINISTRATOR shall have  the  duty  to
 defend  and  indemnify  the  shared vehicle owner and the shared vehicle
 owner's insurer subject to the provisions of this section, section  nine
 A. 8828                            16
 
 hundred  [two]  ONE  of  this  article  and  section three thousand four
 hundred fifty-eight of the insurance law.
   4.  A  motor  vehicle  liability  insurer who defends or indemnifies a
 claim against a shared vehicle which is excluded under the terms of  its
 policy  shall  have  the right to seek contribution against the peer-to-
 peer car sharing [program's] PROGRAM  ADMINISTRATOR'S  insurer,  if  the
 claim is made against the shared vehicle owner, the shared vehicle driv-
 er  or  authorized  [operator]  DRIVER  for loss, DEATH, or injury which
 occurs during the car sharing period.
   5. A peer-to-peer car sharing program ADMINISTRATOR may  contractually
 assume the risk of loss due to physical damage to shared vehicles during
 the  time  that  such  shared  vehicles are in the custody of the shared
 vehicle driver or  peer-to-peer  car  sharing  program,  and  that  such
 assumption of risk:
   (a) shall not be deemed to be physical damage insurance;
   (b) that the terms of such contractual assumption may provide that the
 program  assumes  the  risk  of  physical  damage loss to the vehicle in
 excess of a sum certain; and
   (c) if the terms of such contractual assumption include  a  separately
 itemized  fee  charged  to  the  shared  vehicle  driver  solely for the
 contractual assumption of the risk of loss due to physical damage,  then
 it shall be provided under the terms set forth in this article.
   6.  To the extent not otherwise prohibited by state or federal law, in
 a claims coverage investigation,  a  peer-to-peer  car  sharing  program

 al shall have authority to enforce this article as  authorized  by  law,
 including  injunctive  and other legal and equitable relief for non-com-
 pliance by a car  sharing  program  ADMINISTRATOR  or  any  other  party
 through civil proceedings.
   8. Any provision in a peer-to-peer car sharing agreement designated by
 the  courts of another jurisdiction as the exclusive forum for resolving
 disputes shall be deemed void as against public policy with  respect  to
 the use of a peer-to-peer car sharing [platform] PROGRAM or shared vehi-
 cle in this state.
   9. A peer-to-peer car sharing program ADMINISTRATOR shall be deemed to
 have  received  notice  of  injuries to OR DEATH OF persons or LOSSES OF

 of this article at the earlier of notice received  by  the  peer-to-peer
 car sharing program ADMINISTRATOR or notice received by the shared vehi-
 cle  owner.  A shared vehicle owner shall promptly give actual notice to
 the peer-to-peer car sharing program  ADMINISTRATOR  and  its  insurers,
 including  notice in the form and manner as required in the peer-to-peer
 car sharing agreement, of any INJURIES TO OR DEATH OF PERSONS OR  losses
 OF  PROPERTY potentially covered by insurance maintained by the peer-to-
 peer car sharing program ADMINISTRATOR.    A  peer-to-peer  car  sharing
 program  ADMINISTRATOR  or its insurers shall be deemed to have received
 actual notice when a shared vehicle owner notifies the peer-to-peer  car
 sharing  program  ADMINISTRATOR  or its insurers when the shared vehicle
 owner provided notice in the form and manner required  in  the  peer-to-
 peer car sharing agreement.

 TRATOR or any insurer of the shared vehicle owner, shared vehicle  driv-
 er, or peer-to-peer car sharing program ADMINISTRATOR of any claim shall
 be  deemed  notice  to  all appropriate parties and insurers. Any shared
 vehicle owner, shared vehicle driver, peer-to-peer car  sharing  program
 ADMINISTRATOR or any insurer of the shared vehicle owner, shared vehicle
 driver, or peer-to-peer car sharing program ADMINISTRATOR receiving such
 notice shall provide such notice to all appropriate parties.
   §  903.  Lien  implications;  notification. When a vehicle owner first
 registers as a shared vehicle owner [on] IN a peer-to-peer  car  sharing
 program  and prior to such time as when the shared vehicle owner makes a
 shared vehicle available for peer-to-peer car sharing [on] IN the  peer-
 to-peer car sharing program, the peer-to-peer car sharing program ADMIN-
 ISTRATOR  shall  notify in plain conspicuous language the shared vehicle
 owner that, if the shared vehicle shall have a lien against it, the  use

 including use without physical damage coverage, may violate the terms of
 the contract with the lienholder.
   § 904. Insurable interest. 1. Notwithstanding any other  provision  of
 law  to  the  contrary, a peer-to-peer car sharing program ADMINISTRATOR
 shall have an insurable interest in a shared vehicle during the peer-to-

 peer  car  sharing program ADMINISTRATOR to provide insurance beyond the
 requirement to ensure financial security pursuant to the  provisions  of
 subdivision two of section nine hundred [two] ONE of this article.
   § 905. Disclosures. 1. Each peer-to-peer car sharing program agreement

 protection  package  costs  that  shall be charged to the shared vehicle
 owner or the shared vehicle driver; and
   (b) an emergency telephone number  to  contact  personnel  capable  of
 providing  roadside  assistance  and  handling  other  customer  service
 inquiries.
   2. No peer-to-peer car sharing program ADMINISTRATOR  shall  accept  a
 reservation unless the shared vehicle driver has received a final quoted
 rate that includes all charges which the shared vehicle driver shall pay
 to  obtain access to the vehicle, provided, however, that a peer-to-peer
 car sharing program ADMINISTRATOR may separately state itemized optional
 items and/or services or any mileage below the final quoted rate in  the
 same  font  and  on  the same page or webpage on which the rate quote is
 provided.
   § 906. Driver's license verification; data retention.  1.  A  peer-to-
 peer  car  sharing program ADMINISTRATOR shall not enter into a peer-to-
 peer car sharing program agreement with a driver unless the  driver  who
 will  operate the shared vehicle furnishes proof, by electronic means or
 otherwise, of:
   (a) a valid New York driver's license which authorizes the  driver  to
 operate vehicles of the class of the shared vehicle;
   (b)  a  valid  driver's  license issued by the state or country of the

   (c)  the  date  and place of issuance of the driver's license for each
 such vehicle operator.
   § 907. Data privacy protections. Notwithstanding any  other  provision
 of the law to the contrary, all trip data, personal information, images,
 videos,  and  other  recorded  images  collected by any peer-to-peer car
 sharing program [which] ADMINISTRATOR  THAT  is  authorized  to  operate
 pursuant to this article shall be for the exclusive use of such peer-to-
 peer  car  sharing program and shall not be sold, distributed, or other-
 wise made accessible except:
   1. to the person who is  the  subject  of  such  data  information  or
 record,  or to enable or facilitate such person's use of the car sharing
 program in accordance with the peer-to-peer car sharing agreement;
   2. to respond to, process, facilitate, adjust, or defend an  insurance
 claim; or
   3.  if necessary to comply with a lawful court order, judicial warrant
 signed by a judge appointed pursuant to  article  three  of  the  United
 States  Constitution,  or  subpoena  for individual data, information or
 records properly issued pursuant to the criminal procedure  law  or  the
 civil practice law and rules.
   Provided,  however,  that nothing contained in this paragraph shall be
 deemed to preclude the exchange of anonymized trip data, information, or
 recorded images solely for the purpose of administering such  authorized
 [shared]  CAR  SHARING  program,  and  provided  further that aggregated
 anonymized trip data may be shared with [the] THIS state or any  of  its
 political  subdivisions  for  non-commercial  transportation research or
 traffic management purposes. Any such exchanges or sharing shall exclude
 personal  information,  images,  videos,  and  other   recorded   images
 collected  by  any  peer-to-peer car sharing program ADMINISTRATOR.  For
 the purposes of this section, "personal information" shall mean informa-
 tion that identifies an individual, including but not limited  to  name,
 address,  telephone  number,  and the type and form of payment including
 credit card number, debit card number, or other payment method.
   § 908.  Responsibility  for  equipment.  A  peer-to-peer  car  sharing
 program  ADMINISTRATOR shall have sole responsibility for any equipment,
 such as a global positioning system, or GPS, or other special  equipment
 which  is  put in or on such SHARED vehicle to monitor or facilitate the
 peer-to-peer car sharing transaction, and shall agree to  indemnify  and
 hold  harmless  the  shared  vehicle owner for any damage to or theft of
 such equipment during the peer-to-peer car sharing period not caused  by
 such shared vehicle owner.  There shall be a rebuttable presumption that
 damage claimed during the peer-to-peer car sharing period was not caused
 by  the  shared  vehicle  owner.    The peer-to-peer car sharing program
 ADMINISTRATOR shall have the right to seek  indemnity  from  the  shared
 vehicle driver for any loss or damage to such equipment that shall occur
 during the peer-to-peer car sharing period.
   §  909.  Safety  recalls.  1.  At the time when a shared vehicle owner
 registers a shared vehicle [on] IN a peer-to-peer car  sharing  program,
 and prior to the time when the shared vehicle owner makes a shared vehi-
 cle  available  for  car  sharing  [on]  IN the peer-to-peer car sharing
 A. 8828                            19
 
 program, and no less than  annually  thereafter,  the  peer-to-peer  car
 sharing program ADMINISTRATOR shall:
   (a)  verify  that the shared vehicle is not subject to any open safety
 recalls appearing on the National Highway Traffic Safety  Administration
 recall  database  created  under  49  C.F.R. 573.15 for which the recall
 repair has not been made and shall not permit a  shared  vehicle  to  be
 shared  in  a peer-to-peer car sharing program unless the vehicle recall
 repair has been made; and
   (b) notify such shared vehicle owner of the requirements under  subdi-
 vision two of this section.
   2.  (a)  If  the  shared vehicle owner has received notice of a safety
 recall on a shared vehicle, before it is enrolled in a peer-to-peer  car
 sharing  program  such  shared vehicle owner shall not make such vehicle
 available as a shared vehicle [on] IN a peer-to-peer car sharing program
 until the necessary safety recall repair has been made.
   (b) If a shared vehicle owner has received notice of a  safety  recall
 on  a shared vehicle while the shared vehicle is available on a peer-to-
 peer car sharing program, the shared  vehicle  owner  shall  remove  the
 shared  vehicle  from  such peer-to-peer car sharing program, as soon as
 practicable, and in no case longer than seventy-two hours after  receipt
 of  such notice, and it shall not be made available thereafter until the
 necessary repairs under the safety recall shall have been completed.
   (c) If a shared vehicle owner has received notice of a  safety  recall
 on  a shared vehicle while such shared vehicle is in the possession of a
 shared vehicle driver, the shared vehicle owner shall notify  the  peer-
 to-peer  car  sharing  program  ADMINISTRATOR about the safety recall as
 soon as practicable, and in no case longer than forty-eight hours  after
 receipt  of  such notice, so that the shared vehicle driver can be noti-
 fied and the shared vehicle can be removed  from  the  peer-to-peer  car
 sharing program until the necessary safety recall repair has been made.
   (d)  A  shared  vehicle owner shall not enroll a vehicle in a peer-to-
 peer car sharing program unless such vehicle has  been  issued  a  valid
 safety  inspection  in  compliance  with article five of the vehicle and
 traffic law. A peer-to-peer car sharing program ADMINISTRATOR shall  not
 permit  a  vehicle  to  be  shared  unless  the shared vehicle owner has
 furnished proof to the program of such safety inspection  in  compliance
 with  article  five  of the vehicle and traffic law within the preceding
 twelve months.

 corporation,  partnership,  firm,  institution,  sole  proprietorship or

 state  of  New  York,  to the supreme court of the state of New York, on
 five days' notice, for an order enjoining the continuance of such  busi-
 ness  activity  and  directing  restitution  and  damages.  In  any such

 driver failed to comply with the requirements for  reporting  damage  or
 loss  as  set  forth in law. OVP - DAMAGE REPORTING REQUIREMENTS: If the
 shared vehicle sustains damage or loss, the  shared  vehicle  driver  is
 required  to  complete and return an incident report notice to the peer-
 to-peer car sharing program ADMINISTRATOR.  OVP - RIGHT TO INSPECT VEHI-
 CLE DAMAGES: The shared vehicle driver and his or her insurer  have  the
 right  to  request  an  inspection  of the shared vehicle damages within
 seventy-two hours of the return of the vehicle. Failure  of  the  shared
 vehicle  driver  or his or her insurer to request such inspection within
 seventy-two hours of return shall be deemed a waiver of such  person  or
 entity's right to inspect the damaged vehicle. THEFT OF THE SHARED VEHI-
 CLE:  If  the shared vehicle is stolen during the term of a peer-to-peer
 car sharing agreement, a shared vehicle driver must report the theft  of
 the shared vehicle to the peer-to-peer car sharing program ADMINISTRATOR
 and  a  law  enforcement  agency within twelve hours of learning of such
 theft."
   (f) The following disclosure notice shall be made on the face  of  the
 peer-to-peer  car sharing agreement either by stamp, label or as part of
 the written contract or on any other written document  provided  to  the
 shared  vehicle driver upon execution of such contract, and shall be set
 apart in boldface type and in no smaller print than  twelve-point  font:
 "NOTICE: This agreement offers, for an additional charge, optional vehi-
 cle protection to cover your financial responsibility for damage or loss
 to  the  shared  vehicle. The purchase of optional vehicle protection is
 optional and may be declined. You  are  advised  to  carefully  consider
 whether  to  purchase  this  protection if you have coverage provided by
 your credit card or [automobile] MOTOR  VEHICLE  insurance  policy  that
 will  cover  the  shared  vehicle.   Before deciding whether to purchase
 optional vehicle protection, you may  wish  to  determine  whether  your
 credit  card  or  your  MOTOR vehicle insurance affords you coverage for
 damage to the shared vehicle and the amount  of  deductible  under  such
 coverage."
   (g) The peer-to-peer car sharing agreement shall also include in bold-
 face  type  and in no smaller print than twelve-point font and, in plain
 language, the conditions and exclusions set forth in  paragraph  (c)  of
 A. 8828                            25
 
 subdivision one of this section. Upon identification by the shared vehi-
 cle  owner  or  the  peer-to-peer  car  sharing program ADMINISTRATOR of
 damage to the shared vehicle,  such  peer-to-peer  car  sharing  program
 ADMINISTRATOR  shall  inform  such  shared  vehicle driver of his or her
 right to inspect the vehicle, and the  procedures  and  time-frames  for
 doing so, pursuant to paragraphs (b) and (c) of subdivision five of this
 section.
   4.  (a)  Upon  identification of damage by the shared vehicle owner or
 peer-to-peer car sharing program ADMINISTRATOR at the time of return  of
 the  shared  vehicle, termination of the peer-to-peer car sharing agree-
 ment, or within ten days  if  an  inspection  for  damage  is  precluded
 because  the  shared  vehicle is returned by automation, returned after-
 hours, or recovered by the shared  vehicle  owner  or  peer-to-peer  car
 sharing  program  ADMINISTRATOR,  the  peer-to-peer  car sharing program
 ADMINISTRATOR shall furnish an incident report form and a notice, pursu-
 ant to this subdivision, of the obligation of the shared vehicle  driver
 to  execute  and return to the peer-to-peer car sharing program ADMINIS-
 TRATOR a complete and accurate incident report describing  any  physical
 and/or  mechanical  damage.  If  the shared vehicle is returned by auto-
 mation, returned after-hours, or recovered by the shared  vehicle  owner
 or  peer-to-peer car sharing program ADMINISTRATOR, such incident report
 form and notice shall be mailed by overnight delivery service or  certi-
 fied  mail, return receipt requested, and another copy of such notifica-
 tion shall be sent by regular mail. The peer-to-peer car sharing program
 ADMINISTRATOR shall retain a copy of such notice and the certified  mail
 return receipt for a period of six years.
   (b)  Within  seventy-two  hours of receipt of the incident report form
 and notice, either the shared vehicle driver or his or her insurer shall
 notify or send notice to the peer-to-peer car sharing  program  ADMINIS-
 TRATOR that either he, she, or the insurer wishes to inspect the damaged
 vehicle.  If  the  shared  vehicle driver or his or her insurer does not
 notify or send a request for this inspection within the seventy-two-hour
 period, he, she, or the insurer shall be  deemed  to  have  waived  such
 right.
   (c) If the shared vehicle driver shall decline or fail to complete and
 return  the  incident  report required pursuant to paragraph (a) of this
 subdivision, the peer-to-peer car sharing program  ADMINISTRATOR  shall,
 no  sooner  than  ten days after the mailing of notification pursuant to
 such paragraph (a), mail another copy of the  incident  report  together
 with  a  letter  stating  that the shared vehicle driver has declined or
 otherwise failed to complete and return the incident report.  Such mail-
 ing shall be by overnight delivery service  or  certified  mail,  return
 receipt  requested,  and  another  copy  of such notification by regular
 mail, with proof of mailing by production of a  certificate  of  mailing
 from  the  post office. When a request to inspect the vehicle shall have
 been timely made by the shared vehicle driver or his or her insurer, the
 inspection shall be completed within seven days of such request. If  the
 peer-to-peer  car  sharing  program ADMINISTRATOR determines the damaged
 vehicle to be a total loss and subject to salvage, such seventy-two hour
 period for notification or waiver of the wish  to  inspect  the  damaged
 vehicle  shall  not  apply,  and the shared vehicle driver or his or her
 insurer shall have ten business days from the  shared  vehicle  driver's
 receipt of notification from the peer-to-peer car sharing program ADMIN-
 ISTRATOR  pursuant  to  paragraph (a) of this subdivision to inspect the
 damaged vehicle, which shall be made available  by  the  shared  vehicle
 owner.    Within the limits provided in this paragraph, the peer-to-peer
 A. 8828                            26
 
 car sharing program ADMINISTRATOR shall identify the  repairer  of,  and
 provide  access  to,  the damaged vehicle, in order to verify the nature
 and extent of damages, repairs and repair  costs,  and/or  repair  esti-
 mates.
   (d)  All  notices shall be mailed to the address of the shared vehicle
 driver as stated on his or her license, or other address  as  designated
 by him or her in the peer-to-peer car sharing agreement.
   (e)  The  shared vehicle driver shall complete and return the incident
 report required by paragraph (a) of this subdivision within ten days  of
 the receipt of the notice required by such paragraph.
   (f)  The  notice  required  by  this  subdivision shall be in at least
 twelve-point bold face type and shall contain the statement: "Failure to
 completely and accurately fill out and return an incident report  within
 ten  days  of  receipt of this notice may make the shared vehicle driver
 liable for damages sustained to the shared  vehicle.  Except  where  the
 damaged vehicle is determined to be a total loss and subject to salvage,
 the  shared  vehicle  driver or his or her insurer has seventy-two hours
 from the return or recovery of the vehicle to  notify  the  peer-to-peer
 car  sharing  program ADMINISTRATOR that he or she wishes to inspect the
 damaged vehicle. The inspection shall be completed within seven business
 days of the request to inspect the shared vehicle. If  the  peer-to-peer
 car sharing program ADMINISTRATOR does not receive notification from the
 shared  vehicle  driver or his or her insurer requesting such inspection
 within the seventy-two-hour period, the shared vehicle driver and his or
 her insurer will be deemed to have waived this right.  If  the  peer-to-
 peer car sharing program ADMINISTRATOR determines the damaged vehicle to
 be a total loss and subject to salvage, such seventy-two-hour period for
 notification  or waiver of the wish to inspect the damaged vehicle shall
 not apply, and such right to inspect the damaged  vehicle  shall  expire
 ten  business  days  from  the  shared  vehicle driver's receipt of this
 notice from the peer-to-peer car sharing company PROGRAM  ADMINISTRATOR.
 Upon request of the shared vehicle driver or his or her insurer, we will
 provide  a  copy  of the professional estimate of the costs of repairing
 the damaged motor vehicle." Information that is provided in response  to
 a  request by a peer-to-peer car sharing program ADMINISTRATOR, but that
 is not provided on an incident report form, shall satisfy any  reporting
 obligation  of  a  shared  vehicle driver if such response substantially
 complies with the applicable requirements of this section. If additional
 information is reasonably  required  by  the  peer-to-peer  car  sharing
 program  ADMINISTRATOR  in order to adjust any claim of loss, same shall
 be requested of the shared vehicle driver as soon as reasonably  practi-
 cable, who shall respond to same as soon as reasonably practicable.
   (g)  (i) For purposes of this subdivision, each of the following shall
 constitute an "incident report form":
   (A) a motor vehicle accident report pursuant to  section  six  hundred
 five of the vehicle and traffic law; or
   (B)  any  similar  appropriate  form furnished by the peer-to-peer car
 sharing program ADMINISTRATOR.
   (ii) An incident report form described in clause (B)  of  subparagraph
 (i) of this paragraph:
   (A)  shall  be sent or given to a shared vehicle driver with a request
 that he or she provide information pursuant to this  section  concerning
 damage to a vehicle possessed by a shared vehicle driver; and
   (B)  such  form  may  also  be made available as a fill-in form on the
 peer-to-peer car sharing [program's]  PROGRAM  ADMINISTRATOR'S  website,
 and  the  shared  vehicle driver shall be advised of the availability of
 A. 8828                            27
 
 such web-based fill-in form when a request for incident  information  is
 made pursuant to this subdivision.
   (h) If the shared vehicle driver is physically incapable of completing
 the report, the requirements of this subdivision shall lapse until after
 he  or she is able to complete the report and is notified that he or she
 shall complete and return the report as required  by  paragraph  (b)  of
 this subdivision.
   (i) The peer-to-peer car sharing program ADMINISTRATOR shall, at least
 twenty  days  prior  to  commencing an action against the shared vehicle
 driver, provide him or her an additional  opportunity  to  complete  and
 submit  the  incident  report  by  providing a second notice, along with
 another  incident  report  form,  by  certified  mail,  return   receipt
 requested,  and  another  copy of such notice and report form by regular
 mail, with proof of mailing by production of a certificate  of  mailing.
 If such shared vehicle driver sends the peer-to-peer car sharing program
 ADMINISTRATOR  a  completed  incident  report within fifteen days of the
 receipt of the notice, the  provisions  of  this  subdivision  shall  be
 deemed satisfied.
   5.  (a)  A  peer-to-peer  car sharing program ADMINISTRATOR may hold a
 shared vehicle driver liable to the extent permitted under  this  [chap-
 ter]  SECTION  for  physical  or mechanical damage to the shared vehicle
 that occurs during the time the shared vehicle is USED OR OPERATED under
 the peer-to-peer car sharing agreement; provided, however, that a shared
 vehicle driver shall not be liable for  any  normal  wear  and  tear  or
 mechanical  damage  that could reasonably be expected from normal use OR
 OPERATION of the vehicle. For the purposes of this subdivision, the term
 "normal wear and tear" shall mean the deterioration of the condition  of
 the  vehicle  or  its component parts due to repetitive use and does not
 include damage that materially diminishes the value of the  vehicle  and
 arises from a specific occurrence or accident during the time the shared
 vehicle  is  subject  to the peer-to-peer car sharing agreement; and the
 term "actual and reasonable costs" shall mean the  cost  to  repair  the
 shared  vehicle  including all discounts and price adjustments available
 to the peer-to-peer car sharing program ADMINISTRATOR and shall  include
 costs for towing, storage, and impound fees where applicable.
   (b) The total liability of a shared vehicle driver under paragraph (a)
 of  this subdivision for damage to a shared vehicle shall not exceed the
 lesser of:
   (i) the actual and reasonable costs that the peer-to-peer car  sharing
 program  ADMINISTRATOR  incurred to repair the motor vehicle or that the
 peer-to-peer car sharing program ADMINISTRATOR would  have  incurred  if
 the  motor vehicle had been repaired, which shall reflect any discounts,
 price reductions, or adjustments available to the peer-to-peer car shar-
 ing program ADMINISTRATOR; or
   (ii) the fair market value of the shared  vehicle  immediately  before
 the  damage  occurred,  as  determined  in the applicable market for the
 retail sale of the shared vehicle, less any net disposal proceeds.
   (c) The total liability of a shared vehicle driver under paragraph (a)
 of this subdivision for loss  of  a  shared  vehicle  shall  not  exceed
 reasonable costs incurred by the peer-to-peer car sharing program ADMIN-
 ISTRATOR  for  such  loss  due to theft of such shared vehicle up to its
 fair market value, as determined by the applicable market for the retail
 sale of such vehicle if it is established that such shared vehicle driv-
 er committed, or aided or abetted in the commission  of,  the  theft  of
 such shared vehicle.
 A. 8828                            28
 
   (d)  Damages  incurred  for  the  loss of use OR OPERATION of a shared
 vehicle and related administrative fees shall not be recovered from  any
 shared vehicle driver or his or her insurer.
   (e)  A peer-to-peer car sharing program ADMINISTRATOR shall not hold a
 shared vehicle driver liable for any amounts that the  peer-to-peer  car
 sharing program ADMINISTRATOR recovers from any other party.
   (f) A peer-to-peer car sharing program ADMINISTRATOR shall not collect
 or  attempt  to  collect  the  amount described in paragraph (b) of this
 subdivision unless the peer-to-peer car sharing program ADMINISTRATOR:
   (i) obtains an estimate from a repair company or an appraiser  in  the
 business  of  providing  such appraisals regarding the cost of repairing
 such shared vehicle;
   (ii) provides a copy of such estimate and photographic  evidence  upon
 request to such shared vehicle driver, as applicable who shall be liable
 under  paragraph (a) of this subdivision, and the insurer of such shared
 vehicle driver; and
   (iii) submits a copy of such estimate with any claim  to  collect  the
 amount described in paragraph (b) of this subdivision.
   (g)  A  claim against a shared vehicle driver resulting from damage or
 loss to a shared vehicle shall be reasonable and reflect  the  value  of
 the  actual  DAMAGE OR loss incurred. A peer-to-peer car sharing program
 ADMINISTRATOR shall mitigate damages where possible and shall not assert
 or collect any claim  for  physical  damage  which  exceeds  the  amount
 authorized under paragraph (b) of this subdivision.
   (h)  If insurance coverage exists under an applicable insurance policy
 of the SHARED VEHICLE driver [of a  shared  vehicle],  such  driver  may
 require  that  the peer-to-peer car sharing program ADMINISTRATOR submit
 any claims to such driver's insurance carrier. Upon  the  request  of  a
 shared  vehicle driver, the peer-to-peer car sharing program ADMINISTRA-
 TOR shall submit any claims to such driver's insurance carrier and shall
 not make any written or oral representations to the contrary, nor  shall
 it  make any written or oral representations that it shall not negotiate
 with such driver's insurance carrier.
   6. (a) No peer-to-peer car sharing program ADMINISTRATOR shall collect
 or charge any security deposit by credit card, debit card or  otherwise,
 for  damages  to  a  shared  vehicle  or report the debt to any consumer
 reporting agency, as defined in subdivision (e) of section three hundred
 eighty-a of this chapter, during the term of the peer-to-peer car  shar-
 ing  program  agreement,  pending resolution of any dispute, or prior to
 obtaining judgment in a court of competent jurisdiction.
   (b) No peer-to-peer car sharing program ADMINISTRATOR shall require  a
 deposit  or an advance charge against the credit card or debit card of a
 shared vehicle driver, in any form, for  damages  to  a  shared  vehicle
 which is in the shared vehicle driver's possession or control.
   (c) No peer-to-peer car sharing program ADMINISTRATOR shall collect or
 charge  any  payment from a shared vehicle driver for damage to a shared
 vehicle upon return or recovery of such vehicle in a damaged  condition,
 until  after the cost of the damage to such vehicle and liability there-
 for is agreed to between such peer-to-peer car sharing program  ADMINIS-
 TRATOR  and  a shared vehicle driver or his or her insurer, or is deter-
 mined pursuant to law or  peer-to-peer  car  sharing  program  agreement
 provisions  consistent with law and the rights and obligations set forth
 in this section, unless there is proof corroborating that the damage did
 not exist prior to the reservation and the damage  is  appraised  by  an
 independent  third-party  appraiser;  provided, however, that a peer-to-
 peer car sharing program ADMINISTRATOR is not precluded from  presenting
 A. 8828                            29
 
 a  claim  to  a shared vehicle driver and his or her insurer pursuant to
 other provisions of this section.
   (d)  Causes  of action concerning the existence of, liability for, and
 extent and cost of damage to such vehicle shall, where  appropriate,  be
 commenced by a peer-to-peer car sharing program ADMINISTRATOR in a court
 of competent jurisdiction, in accordance with the limitations and juris-
 diction  of  the  appropriate court act, provided the claimant has first
 mailed a demand letter. A demand letter sent  by  the  peer-to-peer  car
 sharing  program ADMINISTRATOR pursuant to this paragraph shall contain:
 (i) the name and post office address of such  peer-to-peer  car  sharing
 program  ADMINISTRATOR,  and of its attorney, if any; (ii) the nature of
 such claim; (iii) the time when, the place where and the manner in which
 such claim arose, if known, or if not known, the  time  when  and  place
 where  the damage was discovered by the shared vehicle owner or peer-to-
 peer car sharing program ADMINISTRATOR; and (iv) the items of damage  or
 injuries  claimed  to  have  been  sustained,  accompanied by supporting
 documentation, such as repair  bills,  invoices  and  estimates  in  the
 possession  of  or  available  to  such peer-to-peer car sharing program
 ADMINISTRATOR. Such demand letter shall be served upon such shared vehi-
 cle driver and his or her insurer in a  manner  reasonably  designed  to
 give  actual  notice,  via  regular  and  certified mail, return receipt
 requested. Nothing contained herein shall prohibit  a  peer-to-peer  car
 sharing  program ADMINISTRATOR and a shared vehicle driver or his or her
 insurer from entering into an agreement after a claim of loss to  submit
 the matter to arbitration or mediation.
   7.  No  peer-to-peer  car sharing program ADMINISTRATOR shall hold any
 shared vehicle driver liable for any damage to, or  loss  of,  a  shared
 vehicle, as provided by this section, unless such peer-to-peer car shar-
 ing  program  prominently  discloses,  in  the  peer-to-peer car sharing
 agreement, in at least twelve point bold face display,  the  nature  and
 extent  of  such liability and such driver's rights and responsibilities
 pursuant to paragraph (c) of subdivision one of this section  and  para-
 graph (f) of subdivision three of this section.
   8.  A  shared  vehicle driver shall provide notice to the peer-to-peer
 car  sharing  [platform]  PROGRAM  ADMINISTRATOR  and  appropriate   law
 enforcement  agency  immediately  upon learning of the theft of a shared
 vehicle.
   § 914. Geographical discrimination prohibited. It  shall  be  unlawful
 for  any peer-to-peer car sharing program ADMINISTRATOR to engage in any
 of the following practices solely  on  the  basis  of  the  geographical
 location  of  the  residence  of a New York state resident attempting to
 enter into a peer-to-peer car sharing agreement:
   1. refusing to allow participation in such  peer-to-peer  car  sharing
 program  provided,  however,  that  a  PEER-TO-PEER  car sharing program
 ADMINISTRATOR may designate geographical boundaries where a car  sharing
 start time or termination time occurs;
   2.  imposing  any  additional charge for peer-to-peer car sharing of a
 shared vehicle; or
   3. imposing any additional terms, conditions or privileges  upon  such
 peer-to-peer car sharing of a shared vehicle.
   §  915. Global positioning systems. A peer-to-peer car sharing program
 ADMINISTRATOR shall not use  information  from  any  global  positioning
 system  technology  to  determine or impose any costs, fees, charges, or
 penalties on a shared vehicle driver for such driver's use of  a  shared
 vehicle.  The  use  of global positioning technology shall not limit the
 right of such peer-to-peer car sharing program ADMINISTRATOR  to  impose
 A. 8828                            30

 costs,  fees,  charges,  or penalties to recover a vehicle that is lost,
 misplaced, or stolen. The provisions of this subdivision  shall  not  be
 construed to modify or supersede any other provision of law.
   §  916. Notice. In accordance with any applicable federal law or rule,
 every peer-to-peer car  sharing  program  shall  display  the  following
 notice  prominently  and  in  a  clear  and  conspicuous location on its

 to allow participation in a peer-to-peer car sharing  program;  and  (2)
 the  imposition  of  any  additional charge (except in certain instances
 where the shared vehicle driver is under the age of 25). In addition, it
 is unlawful for any peer-to-peer car sharing  program  ADMINISTRATOR  to
 refuse to allow participation in the program to any person solely on the
 requirement of ownership of a credit card."
   §  917.  Electronic  notice  authorized.  1. Notwithstanding any other

 limited  to  the public authority responsible for regulating commerce at
 such airport within [the] THIS state, requests that a  peer-to-peer  car
 sharing  program  ADMINISTRATOR  enter into an airport concession agree-
 ment, such peer-to-peer car sharing program shall enter into  a  written

 shared vehicle owner uses the program to:
   1. list vehicles parked on airport property or at airport facilities;
