Civil actions pursuant to this chapter may only be commenced within two years after
the date on which the infraction occurred, except as provided in section 6.30.610, and the standard of proof which is applied is the preponderance of the evidence.
The city has satisfied its burden of proof if it shows that an infraction occurred
and that the vehicle was registered to the defendant on the date on which the infraction
occurred, unless either of these elements is satisfactorily rebutted by the defendant.
The defendant may assert the defenses set forth in section 6.30.080(e) and (f), and the court may dismiss the notice of the infraction if it finds the
defenses set forth in section 6.30.080(e) are applicable and may reduce the fine if the court finds that the defenses set
forth in section 6.30.080(f) are applicable.
