[Amended 6-8-2009 by L.L. No. 3-2009]
Every person convicted of a violation of any provision of the New York Vehicle and Traffic Law for which no other penalty is prescribed by law, or a violation of any provision of this chapter which is not a violation of the New York Vehicle and Traffic Law, shall be punished by a fine of not more than $150 or by imprisonment for not more than 15 days, or by both such fine and imprisonment; provided, however, that every person convicted of a violation of § 196-12C, E or F, 196-16B or 196-22 of this Code shall be punished by a fine of not more than $350 or by imprisonment for not more than 15 days, or by both such fine and imprisonment. Notwithstanding any provision of this chapter to the contrary, where a provision of the Vehicle and Traffic Law mandates a maximum monetary penalty different from that provided in this section, such different maximum penalty shall apply. The Board of Trustees, by resolution, may establish a schedule of lesser monetary fines for those violations with respect to which such persons may plead guilty by mail.

Any part or parts of this chapter and any regulations

If any article, section, subsection, paragraph,
sentence, clause or provision of this chapter shall be adjudged by
any court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, such adjudication

done or committed in violation of any local law, ordinance, regulation
or rule hereby repealed prior to the taking effect of this chapter.
