AN ACT to amend the vehicle and traffic law, in relation to airbag safe-
  ty; and to repeal paragraph (e) of subdivision 6 of section  398-d  of
  such law relating to the replacement of inflatable restraint systems

  THE  PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-

system  fraud is a public safety concern for both consumers and the auto

and traffic law is REPEALED.
  S 3. Section 415-c of the vehicle and traffic law, as added by chapter

laws of 1998, and subdivisions 1 and 2 as further amended by section 104
of  part  A  of  chapter  62  of the laws of 2011, is amended to read as

seven, prior to offering any salvaged inflatable  restraint  system  for

the  commissioner,  in consultation with the superintendent of financial
services, for the purposes of determining prior to sale that neither the
salvaged inflatable restraint system nor the motor  vehicle  [were]  WAS
