New York outlaws selling used cars without working airbags [View all]
Used car dealers in New York are now prohibited from selling vehicles that don't have working airbags, The Associated Press reported.
New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) announced Sunday that she signed a new law requiring dealers to show buyers documentation that vehicles have a working airbag and a readiness indicator light that shows it is functioning, according to the AP.
The state's legislature passed the bill in June. The new law was named after Anthony Amoros, an 18-year-old Rockland County resident who died in a crash in 2013 while driving a vehicle without functioning airbags.
Hochul said in a statement that "it's crucial that drivers have the protection of an airbag in case tragedy strikes," the AP reported.
