In all cases where the same offense is made punishable or is created by different clauses or sections of this code, the prosecuting officer may elect under which to proceed; but not more than one recovery shall be had against the same person for the same offense; provided, that the revocation of a license or permit shall not be considered a recovery or penalty so as to bar any other penalty being enforced.
Whenever the doing of any act or the omission to do any act constitutes a breach of any section or provisions of this code and there shall be no fine or penalty specifically declared for such breach, the provisions of the general penalty clause 1 shall apply and a separate offense shall be deemed committed upon each day during or on which a breach or violation occurs or continues. (1962 Code)
