The City Manager is hereby authorized and directed to supply police officers with citation tags for the purpose of giving notice to persons violating any provisions of the traffic code or of other laws or ordinances affecting the use of the highways. Notice may be given by delivering the tag to the violator or by affixing it to the vehicle by means of which the violation occurred. The citation tag shall direct the violator to appear and to present such tag at a designated office in the municipality at or before a date and hour specified thereon. Nothing in this section shall be construed to abridge the power of a police officer to arrest any violator and take him into custody.
