Section 45-49-101.10 Civil Violations Under Part.

(a) A civil violation of this part may not result in any punishment of a criminal nature, may not count as points and may not be entered into any person’s official driving history, may not be considered a criminal conviction for any purpose, may not be used to increase or enhance punishment for a subsequent offense of a civil or criminal nature, and may not be considered a moving violation, and no person may be arrested or incarcerated for nonpayment of a civil fine. (b) The fact that a person is held liable or responsible for a civil fine for a violation may not be used as evidence that the person was guilty of negligence or other culpable conduct, but this fact may not preclude evidence generated by a device from being used as evidence in other proceedings.
