how to get the no insurance taken off while applying for traffic school

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Wshington, King County, City of Kent

My daughter got a speeding ticking for 12mph over, she also didn't have her insurance card with her.. The ticket says to choose mitigation hearing, get a court date and then she can apply for traffic school, but how can we get the insurance portion taken off, as she did have insurance, just didn't have the card with her?

Mina and Marley are similar, yet different.



From what I read here http://app.leg.wa.gov/rcw/default.aspx?cite=46.30.020, "(d) Failure to provide proof of motor vehicle insurance is a traffic infraction and is subject to penalties as set by the supreme court under RCW 46.63.110 or community restitution."

~and~

"(2) If a person cited for a violation of subsection (1) of this section appears in person before the court or a violations bureau and provides written evidence that at the time the person was cited, he or she was in compliance with the financial responsibility requirements of subsection (1) of this section, the citation shall be dismissed and the court or violations bureau may assess court administrative costs of twenty-five dollars at the time of dismissal. In lieu of personal appearance, a person cited for a violation of subsection (1) of this section may, before the date scheduled for the person's appearance before the court or violations bureau, submit by mail to the court or violations bureau written evidence that at the time the person was cited, he or she was in compliance with the financial responsibility requirements of subsection (1) of this section, in which case the citation shall be dismissed without cost, except that the court or violations bureau may assess court administrative costs of twenty-five dollars at the time of dismissal."

Your daughter is lucky it happened in Kent, it's one of the few places in Washington that still has traffic school. It's not available to us poor country hicks out here in Covington.
