The New York State Assembly said the "Stop Super Speeders" bill, which would require devices known as speed limiters to be put in the cars of some of the region’s most reckless drivers, will not pass in the assembly in this session.
The bill had picked up momentum following the death of Miriam Yarimi and two of her children, who were hit by a recidivist speeder on Brooklyn's Ocean Parkway in March. Now, the state senate - which introduced the bill - has significantly changed it in hopes that a watered down version will get passed.
The bill is sponsored by State Senator Andrew Gounardes and Assembly member Emily Gallagher. They both joined WNYC host Michael Hill to talk about it.
