Western Australian Current Acts Western Australian Current Acts (1) Subsection (2)
applies if the modified penalty specified in an infringement notice has been
paid within 28 days or such further time as is allowed and the notice has not
been withdrawn.
(2) If this subsection
applies it prevents the bringing of proceedings and the imposition of
penalties to the same extent that they would be prevented if the alleged
offender had been convicted by a court of, and punished for, the alleged
offence.
(3) Payment of a
modified penalty is not to be regarded as an admission for the purposes of any
proceedings, whether civil or criminal.
