HB 1373-S - DIGEST |
(DIGEST OF PROPOSED 1ST SUBSTITUTE) |
Revises photo enforcement of traffic infraction provisions. |
Provides that infractions generated by the use of photo enforcement systems under this act shall be processed in the same manner as parking infractions, including for the purposes of RCW 3.46.120, 3.50.100, 35.20.220, 46.16.216, and 46.20.270(3). |
Provides that the penalty for an infraction detected through the use of a photo enforcement system shall be forty dollars plus an additional toll penalty. The toll penalty is equal to three times the cash toll for a standard passenger car during peak hours. Any reduction in the total penalty imposed shall be made proportionally between the forty-dollar penalty and the toll penalty. The court shall remit the toll penalty to the department of transportation or a private entity under contract with the department of transportation for deposit in the statewide account in which tolls are deposited for the tolling facility at which the violation occurred. |
