ROAD TRAFFIC ACT 1974 - SECT 102D

102D .         Notice under s. 102C may become traffic infringement notice

        (1)         An offence against section 102C(3) is prescribed for the purposes of section 102 and the penalty for that offence if dealt with under section 102 (the modified penalty ) is an amount of double the penalty prescribed under section 102(1) for the offence described in the notice under section 102C(1).

        (2)         If a person on which a notice enclosing photographic evidence is served under section 102C(1) or (2) fails to comply with the notice, the notice is to be regarded as also being a traffic infringement notice served on the person for the offence against section 102C(3) constituted by that failure to comply.

        (3)         For the purposes of section 102(1) and (4) and any other enactment, the specified time for the payment of the modified penalty is the period of 14 days after the end of the period referred to in section 102C(3).

        (4)         Subject to section 102C(5), if the amount of the modified penalty has been paid before the day on which a notice is to be regarded under this section as a traffic infringement notice, the amount may be held until that day and then treated as an amount received in payment of the modified penalty.

        (5)         Despite section 102(7), the payment of the modified penalty does not constitute a conviction of an offence for any purpose.

        [Section 102D inserted by No. 39 of 2000 s. 44; amended by No. 4 of 2007 s. 29.]
