212 - Records.
§ 212. Records. Every driver of a motor truck or motor bus shall keep and carry on the vehicle records showing the day and hour when and the place where he went and was released from duty, whether in this state or outside of this state. The commissioner shall prescribe the form of such records and may require such other information to be shown thereon as he shall deem advisable to insure the proper enforcement of this article. Such records shall be exhibited to the commissioner, his representatives, or to any peace officer, acting pursuant to his special duties or police officer who shall demand to see the same and shall be held available for further inspection for a period of sixty days within the state of New York in an office designated by the owner. Failure to produce such records upon demand shall be presumptive evidence of a violation of this article relating to keeping such records. In any prosecution for the violation of any of the provisions of this article such records shall be prima facie evidence of the truth of the contents thereof.
