       vehicle without having proof of valid insurance, presents to the court clerk
       within 15 days of the date of violation, or prior to a scheduled mitigation or
       contested hearing, evidence that they had in effect at the time of the
       infraction liability insurance as required by RCW 46.30.020, then, upon payment
       of $25 administrative costs, the case shall be dismissed and the court clerk
       shall be authorized to make appropriate notation of the dismissal in the court file.

       vehicle without having proof of valid insurance, provides proof to the court
       clerk within 15 days of the violation, or prior to a scheduled mitigation or
       contested hearing, that they subsequently obtained liability insurance in
       conformity with the requirements of RCW 46.30.020, then the penalty shall be
       reduced to $200.  The clerk shall be authorized to enter a finding that the
       infraction was committed and make appropriate notations in the court record.
