Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Code, except in cases of weight violations
or ordinances relating to weight restrictions where the amount of the excess weight
is more than 4,500 pounds, violation of any provision of this Chapter, or of any ordinance,
rule, regulation or order adopted or established pursuant to any provision of this
Chapter, is an infraction and is punishable in accordance with the applicable provision
of the California Vehicle Code. However, any such violation which would otherwise
be an infraction is a misdemeanor, punishable in accordance with the provision of
the California Vehicle Code, if the defendant has been convicted of three or more
violations of the California Vehicle Code or of any ordinance adopted pursuant to
such Code within the 12-month period immediately preceding the commission of the violation
and such prior convictions are admitted by the defendant or alleged in the accusatory
pleading. For this purpose a bail forfeiture is deemed to be a conviction of the violation
charged. Violations of any provision of this Chapter, or of any rule, regulation or
order adopted or established pursuant to any provision of this Chapter relating to
weight restrictions where the amount of the excess weight is more than 4,500 pounds,
is a misdemeanor and is punishable in accordance with the applicable provisions of
the California Vehicle Code.
