Astoria, OR – State officials have announced that the Governor’s new remission orders remove existing fines for more than 10,000 additional Oregonians who should have been included in the 2022 remission orders.
They now have their fines and fees forgiven and have the opportunity to restore their licenses, state officials say.
Prior to the 2020 passage of House Bill 4210, driver’s licenses could be suspended if a person was unable to pay the fine they received because of a minor traffic violation.
The new law prohibited most license suspensions for nonpayment of traffic fines going forward, but individuals with debt-based license suspensions already on their record could not reinstate their driver’s licenses.
No other information is available at the moment.
