18.22 		Subd. 4.Penalty. (a) A person who violates this section is guilty of a misdemeanor. 
18.23 	A person is guilty of a gross misdemeanor who violates this section within ten years 
18.24 	of the first of two prior convictions under this section, section 169.791, or a statute or 
18.25 	ordinance in conformity with one of those sections. The operator of a vehicle who violates 
18.26 	subdivision 3 and who causes or contributes to causing a vehicle accident that results in 
18.27 	the death of any person or in substantial bodily harm to any person, as defined in section 
18.28 	609.02, subdivision 7a, is guilty of a gross misdemeanor. The same prosecuting authority 
18.29 	who is responsible for prosecuting misdemeanor violations of this section is responsible 
18.30 	for prosecuting gross misdemeanor violations of this section. In addition to any sentence 
18.31 	of imprisonment that the court may impose on a person convicted of violating this section, 
18.32 	the court shall impose a fine of not less than $200 nor more than the maximum amount 
19.1 	authorized by law. The court may allow community service in lieu of any fine imposed if 
19.2 	the defendant is indigent. 
19.3 	(b) A driver who is the owner of the vehicle may, no later than the date and time 
19.4 	specified in the citation for the driver's first court appearance, produce proof of insurance 
19.5 	stating that security had been provided for the vehicle that was being operated at the time 
19.6 	of demand to the court administrator. The required proof of insurance may be sent by mail 
19.7 	by the driver as long as it is received no later than the date and time specified in the 
19.8 	citation for the driver's first court appearance. If a citation is issued, no person shall be 
19.9 	convicted of violating this section if the court administrator receives the required proof of 
19.10 	insurance no later than the date and time specified in the citation for the driver's first court 
19.11 	appearance. If the charge is made other than by citation, no person shall be convicted of 
19.12 	violating this section if the person presents the required proof of insurance at the person's 
19.13 	first court appearance after the charge is made.
19.14 	(c) If the driver is not the owner of the vehicle, the driver shall, no later than the 
19.15 	date and time specified in the citation for the driver's first court appearance, provide the 
19.16 	district court administrator with proof of insurance or the name and address of the owner. 
19.17 	Upon receipt of the name and address of the owner, the district court administrator shall 
19.18 	communicate the information to the law enforcement agency.
19.19 	(d) If the driver is not the owner of the vehicle, the officer may send or provide a 
19.20 	notice to the owner of the vehicle requiring the owner to produce proof of insurance for 
19.21 	the vehicle that was being operated at the time of the demand. Notice by mail is presumed 
19.22 	to be received five days after mailing and shall be sent to the owner's current address or the 
19.23 	address listed on the owner's driver's license. Within ten days after receipt of the notice, 
19.24 	the owner shall produce the required proof of insurance to the place stated in the notice 
19.25 	received by the owner. The required proof of insurance may be sent by mail by the owner 
19.26 	as long as it is received within ten days. Any owner who fails to produce proof of insurance 
19.27 	within ten days of an officer's request under this subdivision is guilty of a misdemeanor. 
19.28 	The peace officer may mail the citation to the owner's current address or address stated 
19.29 	on the owner's driver's license. It is an affirmative defense to a charge against the owner 
19.30 	that the driver used the owner's vehicle without consent, if insurance would not have been 
19.31 	required in the absence of the unauthorized use by the driver. It is not a defense that a 
19.32 	person failed to notify the Department of Public Safety of a change of name or address as 
19.33 	required under section 171.11. The citation may be sent after the ten-day period.
19.34 	(b)(e) The court may impose consecutive sentences for offenses arising out of a 
19.35 	single course of conduct as permitted in section 609.035, subdivision 2.

20.2 	under this section shall be revoked for not more than 12 months. If the operator is also an 
20.3 	owner of the vehicle, the registration of the vehicle shall also be revoked for not more 
20.4 	than 12 months. Before reinstatement of a driver's license or registration, the operator 
20.5 	shall file with the commissioner of public safety the written certificate of an insurance 
20.6 	carrier authorized to do business in this state stating that security has been provided by the 
20.7 	operator as required by section 65B.48. 
20.8 	(d)(g) The commissioner shall include a notice of the penalties contained in this 
20.9 	section on all forms for registration of vehicles required to maintain a plan of reparation 
20.10 	security.

20.31 	petty misdemeanor offense, other than a violation of a law or ordinance relating to vehicle 
20.32 	parking, for which there shall be a $12 surcharge. When a defendant is convicted of more 
20.33 	than one offense in a case, the surcharge shall be imposed only once in that case. In the 
20.34 	Second Judicial District, the court shall impose, and the court administrator shall collect, 
21.1 	an additional $1 surcharge on every person convicted of any felony, gross misdemeanor, 
21.2 	misdemeanor, or petty misdemeanor offense, including a violation of a law or ordinance
