§ 54. Violations, convictions; statement
Any person charged with the violation of any rule, regulation, restriction, or ordinance
of said City, which regulates, restricts, or defines the time or place of parking
vehicles in the City of Vergennes or prescribes any traffic regulations, may within
three days from the date of such charge by a statement signed by such person admit
such violation and waive issuing of any process and a trial by jury or hearing and
may voluntarily pay to said Traffic Court of said City the penalty herein prescribed;
provided, however, that whenever in the opinion of said Court, the gravity of the
offense requires a fine in excess of the above penalty, such Court may refuse to accept
such signed statement and penalty and shall then make complaint to the proper prosecuting
officer of said City or to the State’s Attorney of the County. In such event, such
signed statement and penalty shall be returned to the offender and shall not be considered
as an admission or used as evidence in any trial in any court in this State.
