CITATIONS FOR NO INSURANCE
If a defendant who was cited with a violation of RCW 46.30.020 presents to a
court clerk or administrator evidence that the person had in effect at the time
of the citation liability insurance as required by that statute, then upon the
payment of twenty-five ($25) administrative costs, the case shall be dismissed
and the court clerk/administrator shall be authorized to make appropriate
notation of the dismissal in the Court file.
If a defendant who was cited with a violation of RCW 46.30.020, for failure to
have liability insurance is able to show evidence that the person did not have
insurance at the time of the citation but has subsequently obtained liability
insurance in conformity with the requirements of the statutes, then the
penalty upon a first violation of such statute shall be reduced to two hundred
seventy-five dollars ($275); upon a second violation shall be reduced to three
hundred seventy-five dollars ($375); in either event the court
clerk/administrator shall be authorized to enter a finding that the infraction
was committed, and make appropriate notations in the Court record, and the
person shall be relieved of any further need to appear in court in connection
with that particular infraction.
