2003 Senate Bill 509 ↩

Senate Roll Call 165: Passed

To assess a number of very expensive "driver responsibility fees" on individuals who accumulate seven or more "points" within a two-year period, and for other specified infractions. In addition, a motorist who fails to produce his or her proof of insurance form when requested by a police officer would be assessed $300. This is one of many bills authorizing tax and fee increases proposed to close a gap between state spending and expected revenue.
