Posted by Stephen Bauman on Tue Jan 10 22:23:24 2017, in response to Re: Pedestrians aren't the only ones who matter., posted by RIPTA42HopeTunnel on Tue Jan 10 21:15:55 2017. NYS Vehicle and Traffic Law§ 385. Dimensions and weights of vehicles. 1. (a) (i) The width of a vehicle, inclusive of load, shall be not more than ninety-six inches plus safety devices, except that the maximum width of a vehicle, inclusive of load, shall be one hundred two inches, plus safety devices, on any qualifying or access highway. Except in a city not wholly included within one county, the maximum width of a vehicle, inclusive of load shall not be more than one hundred two inches plus safety devices on any other highway with traffic lanes designed to be a width of ten feet or more. Read again. 8 1/2 foot trucks are allowed only on qualified highways. In NYC, 8 1/2 foot trucks are allowed only on roads with lanes that are 10 feet wide or more. However, this discussion started with reducing the width of Queens Blv lanes to 9 feet to get vehicles to obey speed limit. |
