Correct Answer
C. Records retained under Part 182 need not be capable of being produced to the Secretary of State.
Detailed Explanation
Recordkeeping includes a production duty. 19 NYCRR §182.9(a)-(c) requires contemporaneous records, allows secure third-party storage, mandates ten-year retention, and says records must be capable of being produced to the Secretary of State and others as necessary. Not to be confused with the separate ten-year retention rule for audio-video recordings under §182.8(b).
