HB 1157 Toll facilities; penalty for failure to pay toll.
Introduced by: Thomas Davis Rust | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:
Toll roads; failure to pay toll. Provides a civil penalty of $25 for a first offense or $50 for any subsequent offense plus the operator’s administrative fee and the toll due, and applicable court costs if the vehicle is found to have used a toll facility without payment of the required toll. The operator of a toll facility may send an invoice or bill to the driver as part of an electronic or manual toll collection process prior to seeking remedies allowed by the bill. Penalties assessed as the result of action initiated by the Virginia Department of Transportation shall be remanded to the Virginia Department of Transportation’s Toll Facilities Revolving Fund. Penalties assessed as the result of action initiated by an operator of a toll facility other than the Virginia Department of Transportation shall be remanded to the toll facility’s account for expenses associated with operation of the facility and payments against any bonds or other liens issued as a result of the construction of the facility. The bill provides that imposition of a civil penalty for failure to pay a toll shall not be deemed a conviction as an operator and shall not be made part of the operating record of the person upon whom such civil penalty is imposed nor shall it be used for insurance purposes in the provision of motor vehicle insurance coverage.
