The  signs  and  selling  prices  shall  be posted so as to be clearly  visible to the driver of an approaching motor vehicle or motorboat.  The  name,   trade  name,  brand,  mark  or  symbol,  and  grade  of  qualityclassification, if any of such motor fuel shall be permanently imprinted  on said motor fuel dispensing device. The provisions of this subdivision  shall not apply to a city, county, town or  village  which  has  already  enacted  and  continues  in  effect  a  local  law,  ordinance,  rule or  regulation  in  substantial  conformity  with  this   subdivision.   The  provisions of this subdivision shall be enforced in the counties outside  the  city  of  New  York  by  the county or city director of weights and  measures, as the case may be, and  in  the  city  of  New  York  by  the  department of consumer affairs.    b.  Any  person  who  shall violate the provisions of this subdivision  shall be liable to a civil penalty of not more than one hundred  dollars  and  for  any subsequent violation shall be liable to a civil penalty of  not more than five hundred dollars.    6.

Any dealer must provide on the premises where motor fuel is sold at  retail  for  use  in  motor  vehicles  a  functioning  motor  driven air  compressor capable of inflating automobile tires for  use  by  customers  during hours in which such station is open for business.    c.  Wilful  failure  to comply with the provisions of this subdivision  shall subject a dealer to a civil penalty of up to  twenty-five  dollars  for  each day such failure occurs. If the failure to comply results from  the breakdown of the air compressor, the  failure  to  repair  within  a  reasonable time shall constitute wilful conduct.
