Bill > HB1239

This bill amends two sections of the North Dakota Century Code. First, it clarifies that state law crimes cannot be superseded by city or county ordinances, except as provided in a specific section. Secondly, it increases the statutory fees for various noncriminal traffic offenses, such as speeding and other moving violations, with some fees doubling or tripling in amount. The bill provides the specific fee amounts for different categories of offenses, including higher fees for violations in school zones and highway construction zones. The purpose of the bill is to standardize the effect of state law on local ordinances and to adjust the monetary penalties for traffic infractions.
