§ 6.30.060. Same—Service.  


Latest version.
  • (a)

    The notice of infraction must be served upon the owner and/or operator of the vehicle by affixing the notice to the vehicle in a conspicuous place. Service of the notice of infraction by affixation has the same force and effect and is subject to the same penalties for the disregard thereof, as if the notice of infraction were personally served on the owner and/or operator of the vehicle. In lieu of service by affixation, the notice of infraction may be personally served upon the owner and/or operator of the vehicle.

    (b)

    For the purposes of this chapter, an operator of a vehicle who is not the owner thereof but who uses or operates the vehicle with the permission of the owner, express or implied, is deemed to be the agent of the owner to receive a notice of infraction, whether it is personally served on the operator or served by affixation, and service in either manner is also deemed to be lawful service upon the owner.
