requiring the division of motor vehicles to extend a fine payment period for certain motor vehicle violations from 30 days to 90 days if the driver requests the extension.
HB 321 would allow drivers to request a 90-day extension to pay fines for certain motor vehicle violations, instead of the current 30-day deadline. Drivers must formally ask the Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV) for this extension. The bill changes the standard payment period only for eligible violations when a request is made. It does not alter the fine amount or apply to all traffic violations.
