Notice of intent to suspend.

At the time the department mails a notice of security, it shall also mail a notice of intent to suspend. The notice of intent to suspend shall give notice to the person required to post security of the department's intention to suspend the person's driving privilege, the effective date of such suspension to be not less than twenty and not more than sixty days from the date of mailing. The grounds stated in the notice shall be: "Failure to deposit the security requirements and to file proof of financial responsibility." A person receiving a notice of intent to suspend may apply for administrative review under WAC 308-102-100. Failure to apply for administrative review within the time limits of WAC 308-102-100 shall constitute a default and shall result in the suspension becoming effective on the date indicated on the notice of intent to suspend and the loss of the right to further administrative review. In the event the person so notified posts the security and files proof of financial responsibility for the future within the time allowed for such purposes, no suspension shall be effected. The department may extend the effective date of the suspension where it appears the person suspended has made a bona fide attempt to file proof of financial responsibility for the future within the time permitted and will in all probability be able to do so within thirty days.
