Her security detail is provided by NYS Police. Let’s say that they stop this “cloak” immediately, tomorrow, what exactly changes?

The state will penalize the state for driving around in the service of the state?

Additionally, those vehicles in the article all have flashing lights, and are driven by cops as is, what’s preventing them from driving around with their lights on which allows them broad latitude in obeying speed limits and traffic lights?

It's for transparency, something that's been lacking in both Cuomo's and Hochul's administrations.

Why are traffic camera violations public record for everyone else?

To your second point, they should be respecting all traffic laws, except for true emergencies.

It's been missing for 50 years according to the post. I wonder if she even knew this was happening.

That's misleading because traffic violation cameras have only been around since 2014.

I think you are misreading. They never said they are immune from the traffic cameras. They said the vehicles are not in the DMV database.

Fair, but they'll just claim that it's all a true emergency. After all, they're carrying a VIP, etc...
