     (a) Effect of Schedule. The penalty for any infraction listed in this rule may not be changed by local court rule. The court may impose on a defendant a lesser penalty in an individual case. Provided that, whenever the base penalty plus statutory assessments results in a total payment that is not an even dollar amount, the base penalty is deemed to be amended to a lesser higher amount which produces the next lowest greatest even dollar total.

     (b) Unscheduled Infractions. The penalty for any infraction not listed in this rule shall be $35 $37, not including statutory assessments. A court may, by local court rule, provide for a different penalty.

     (c) Infractions Not Covered. This schedule does not apply to penalties for parking, standing, stopping, or pedestrian infractions established by municipal or county statute.
