North Dakota § 39-12-14.1

• Jurisdiction: North Dakota
• Title 39: Motor Vehicles
• Ch. 39-12: Size, Width, and Height Restrictions

Text

Before the complaint is issued under section 39-12-14, the owner, or the owner's driver or
agent, may voluntarily pay the amount of the extraordinary road use fee, or may provide proof of
surety coverage to ensure payment of the extraordinary road use fee, provided under section

39-12-17, plus any towing or storage costs. Any settlement, whether made by the owner, or the
owner's driver or agent, is presumed to be voluntary. A peace officer or a peace officer's
designee is authorized to receive the settlement payment on behalf of the authority having
jurisdiction over the road on which the violation occurred. The extraordinary road use fees for a
violation on an interstate or on a state highway must be deposited with the state treasurer to be
credited to the state highway fund. Extraordinary road use fees for a violation that did not occur
on an interstate or a state highway must be deposited in the general fund of the jurisdiction
having authority over the road on which the violation occurred and must be used for the support
of the road system of that jurisdiction.
