Section 1. Amend §2116, Chapter 21, Title 21 of the Delaware Code by re-designating present subsection (b) as new subsection (c); by re-designating present subsection (c) as new subsection (d); and by adding thereto a new subsection (b) which shall read as follows:
"(b)(1) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (a) of this section, whoever violates subsections (1) through (5) of Section 2115 shall, for the first offense, be fined not less than fifty dollars ($50.00) nor more than two hundred dollars ($200.00), be imprisoned not less than thirty days nor more than ninety days, or be penalized by both fine and imprisonment. For each subsequent like offense, such person shall be fined not less than one hundred dollars ($100.00) nor more than three hundred dollars ($300.00), be imprisoned not less than ninety days nor more than six months, or be penalized by both fine and imprisonment.

In addition, such person shall also be fined an amount which is equal to the costs of registering the vehicle either at its gross weight at the time of the offense, or at the maximum legal limit, whichever is less.
