New York has always been a leader in requiring seat belts in vehicles. Since 1962, certain types of vehicles have been required to have seat belts. Other states and the Federal government have also seen fit to follow New York by regulating in this area. New York believes it desirable to have nationwide uniformity. It is in that spirit that this Part is promulgated.
