The adopted rule establishes a demonstration program on that portion of the BQE from the vicinity of Atlantic Avenue to the vicinity of Sands Street in Brooklyn to enforce vehicle weight restrictions imposed by VTL section 385 on that roadway by means of mobile or stationary weigh-in-motion systems. The Department of Transportation will implement the demonstration program in accordance with VTL section 385-a and, as such, DOT will maintain the weigh-inmotion systems, send notices of liability to motorists, and transmit information relating to these violations to the Department of Finance.
