Upon receipt of such person's driver's license, the division shall suspend such person's privilege to operate a motor vehicle in this state until such person appears before the court having jurisdiction of the offense charged, the court makes a final disposition thereof and notice of such disposition is given by the court to the division.

(2) Such bond may be a cash bond, a bank card draft from any valid and unexpired credit card approved by the division of vehicles or superintendent of the Kansas highway patrol or a guaranteed arrest bond certificate issued by either a surety company authorized to transact such business in this state or an automobile club authorized to transact business in this state by the commissioner of insurance. If any of the approved bank card issuers redeem the bank card draft at a discounted rate, such discount shall be charged against the amount designated as the fine for the offense.

After such cash payment, the person stopped need not sign the written notice to appear, but the police officer shall note the amount of the bond mailed on the notice to appear form and shall give a copy of such form to the person. If the person stopped furnishes the police officer with a guaranteed arrest bond certificate or bank card draft, the police officer shall give such person a receipt therefor and shall note the amount of the bond on the notice to appear form and give a copy of such form to the person stopped. Such person need not sign the written notice to appear, and the police officer shall present the notice to appear and the guaranteed arrest bond certificate or bank card draft to the court having jurisdiction of the offense charged as soon as reasonably possible.

which shall
be regarded as a docket fee in any court having jurisdiction over the violation

bond as provided for under subsection (c). The bond shall be in the amount of
$54, plus $54 which shall be regarded as a docket fee in any
court having
jurisdiction over the violation of state law.
(i) The docket fee established in this section shall be the

(b) A police officer at the scene of a traffic accident may arrest any
driver of a vehicle involved in the accident when, based upon personal investigation,
the officer has reasonable and probable grounds to believe that the person
has committed any offense under the provisions of the uniform vehicle code
in connection with the accident, except when every such offense is a traffic
infraction.

(b) In addition to penalties of law applicable under subsection (a), when
a person fails to comply with a
traffic citation, except for illegal parking, standing or stopping, the
district or municipal court in which the person should have complied with
the citation shall mail notice to the person that if the person does not appear
in
district or municipal court or pay all fines, court costs and any penalties
within 30 days from the date of mailing, the division of vehicles will be
notified to suspend the person's driving privileges. Upon the person's
failure to comply within such 30 days, the district or municipal court
shall electronically notify the division of vehicles. Upon receipt of a
report of
a failure to comply with a traffic citation under this
subsection, pursuant to K.S.A. 8-255, and amendments
thereto, the division of vehicles shall notify the violator and suspend
the license of the violator until satisfactory evidence
of compliance with the terms of the traffic citation has been furnished
to
the informing court. When the court determines the person has complied with
the terms of the traffic citation, the court shall immediately electronically
notify the division of vehicles of such compliance. Upon receipt of
notification of such compliance
from the informing court,
the division of vehicles shall terminate the suspension or
suspension action.
(c) Except as provided in subsection (d), when the district or municipal
court notifies the division of
vehicles of a failure to comply with a traffic citation pursuant to
subsection (b), the court shall assess a reinstatement fee of $50
for each
charge on which the person failed to make satisfaction regardless of the
disposition of the charge for which such citation was originally issued.
Such reinstatement fee shall be in addition to any fine, district or
municipal court costs and
other penalties. The court shall
remit all
reinstatement fees to the state treasurer
in accordance
with the provisions of K.S.A. 75-4215, and amendments thereto. Upon receipt of
each such remittance, the state treasurer shall deposit the entire amount
in the state treasury and
shall credit
50% of such moneys to the division of vehicles
operating fund, 37.5% to the community alcoholism and intoxication
programs
fund created by K.S.A. 41-1126, and amendments thereto, and 12.5% to
the juvenile
detention facilities fund created by K.S.A. 79-4803, and amendments thereto.
(d) The district court or municipal court shall
waive the reinstatement fee provided for in subsection (c), if the failure to
comply with a traffic citation was the result of such person enlisting in or
being
drafted into the armed services of the United States, being called into service
as a member of a reserve component of the military service of the United
States, or volunteering for such active duty, or being called into service as a
member of the state of Kansas national guard, or volunteering for such active
duty, and being absent from Kansas because of such military service. In any
case of a failure to comply with a traffic citation which occurred on or after
August 1, 1990, and prior to the effective date of this act, in which a person
was assessed and paid a reinstatement fee and the person failed to comply with
a traffic citation because the person was absent from Kansas because of any
such military service, the reinstatement fee shall be reimbursed to such person
upon application therefor.
The state treasurer and the director of accounts and reports shall prescribe
procedures for all such reimbursement payments and shall create appropriate
accounts, make appropriate accounting entries and issue such appropriate
vouchers and warrants as may be required to make such reimbursement payments.
(e) The reinstatement fee established in this section shall be the only
fee collected or moneys in the nature of a fee collected for such
reinstatement. Such fee shall only be established by an act of the legislature
and no other authority is established by law or otherwise to collect a
fee.

(b) Instead of suspending a driver's license pursuant to this section, the
court may place restrictions on the child's driver's privileges pursuant to
K.S.A. 8-292 and amendments thereto.
(c) Instead of the penalties provided in subsections (a) and (b), the
court may place the child under a house arrest program, pursuant to K.S.A.
