Bill > HB1294

This bill amends North Dakota's existing law regarding fees for moving violations by modifying the specific fee amounts for various traffic offenses. The bill increases the fee for certain violations, most notably raising the fee for violations of sections 39-10-46 and 39-10-46.1 from $100 to $250. The bill maintains the standard $20 fee for most moving violations but specifies different fee amounts for specific types of traffic infractions, such as $50 for failure to yield to pedestrians, $100 for certain driving-related offenses, $250 for specific violations, and $500 for violations of section 39-10-59. The bill also introduces a tiered fine structure for some offenses, such as charging $150 for a first violation of section 39-08-20 and $300 for subsequent violations within three years. These changes aim to adjust the financial penalties for different types of traffic violations, potentially serving as a deterrent and reflecting the relative severity of different traffic offenses.
