(a) A law enforcement officer employed by the Village shall examine evidence of alleged traffic law violations recorded by the device to determine whether such a violation has occurred. If the image recorded by the traffic law photo-monitoring device shows such a violation, contains the date and time of the violation, and shows the letter and numerals on the license plate of the vehicle involved as well as the state that issued the license plate, the officer may use any lawful means to identify the registered owner.
(b) The fact that a person or entity is the registered owner of a motor vehicle is prima facie evidence that that person or entity is the person who was operating the vehicle at the time of the traffic law violation.
(c) Within 30 days of the traffic law violation, the Village or its designee may issue and send by regular mail a ticket charging the registered owner with the violation. The ticket shall comply with Section 418.04.
(d) A certified copy of the ticket alleging a traffic law violation, sworn to or affirmed by a law enforcement officer employed by the Village, including by electronic means, and the recorded images produced by the traffic law photo-monitoring device, is prima facie evidence of the facts contained therein and is admissible in a proceeding for review of the ticket issued under this section.
