Motor Vehicles - Installment Payment Plans - Automated Enforcement
SB 761 allows drivers to pay civil penalties from automated traffic enforcement (like red-light camera or speed camera citations) in installments through the court system. It expands existing payment plan rules to explicitly include these automated penalties, which were previously excluded from installment agreements. The bill applies to penalties totaling at least $150 that a driver certifies they cannot pay in full, requiring courts to post these options and handle address changes during the plan. This changes how courts process automated enforcement fines, making payment more flexible without altering the penalties themselves.
