Section 1205-4.0 - Fines

Violation notices are sent to the registered owner of the vehicle that fails to comply with a traffic light signal, as evidenced by information obtained from a traffic light signal monitoring system, and shall be subject to a civil offense rather than a criminal offense. At the time of this revision, the present violation fine of $112.50 is calculated using two components: a base fine of $75.00 and a surcharge of $37.50. The $75.00 fee is authorized by 21 Del.C.§ 4101 (d)(2). The $37.50 surcharge originates from 11 Del.C.§ 410, which requires fines or fees levied for violations of Title 21 to include an additional 50% surcharge assessment.
