Western Australian Consolidated Acts (1) 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or such further time as is allowed and the notice has not been withdrawn, the
bringing of proceedings and the imposition of penalties are prevented to the
same extent as they would be if the alleged offender had been convicted by a
court of, and punished for, the alleged offence.
(2) Payment of a
modified penalty shall not be regarded as an admission for the purposes of any
proceedings, whether civil or criminal.
