Sec. 102.1. Introduction

Article 48-A of the Vehicle and Traffic Law provides for the control and use of motor vehicles which would be subject to registration under subdivision (6) of section 401 or 410 of the Vehicle and Traffic Law (passenger automobiles and motorcycles, respectively), but which have a maximum speed capability of not more than 40 miles per hour. Article 48-A of the Vehicle and Traffic Law provides that all of the provisions of the Vehicle and Traffic Law apply to such vehicles, which are called limited use vehicles, unless such law or regulations promulgated thereunder provide otherwise. That article and this Part specify those provisions of the Vehicle and Traffic Law which do not apply, or have been altered or modified in their application to limited use vehicles. Any provision of the Vehicle and Traffic Law which is not made inapplicable or is not modified or altered by such article or this Part is applicable to a limited use vehicle as if such limited use vehicle was a passenger automobile or a motorcycle registered pursuant to subdivision (6) of section 401 or section 410 of the Vehicle and Traffic Law respectively.
