(a) Whoever violates or fails to comply with any of the provisions of this Traffic Code, including any rule or regulation promulgated pursuant thereto, for which no penalty is otherwise provided, shall be fined the amount set forth by the Board of Commissioners in the fee resolution and costs of prosecution.
(b) Upon a plea and proof that a person is unable to pay any fine and costs imposed under subsection (a) above, a court may, in accordance with the Pennsylvania Rules of Criminal Procedure, order the payment of the fines and costs in installments and shall fix the amounts, times and manner of payment.
(c) Any person charged with a violation of any provision of this Code for which payment of a prescribed fine may be made, may pay such sum in the manner prescribed on the issued traffic ticket. Such payment shall be deemed a plea of guilty, waiver of court appearance and acknowledgment of conviction of the alleged offense and may be accepted in full satisfaction of the prescribed penalty for such alleged violation. Payment of the prescribed fine need not be accepted when laws prescribe that a certain number of such offenses shall require court appearance.
