10-15-3: PENALTY:
Whenever, after a hearing before the juvenile traffic court, it shall be found that a child under the age of eighteen (18) years has unlawfully operated a motor vehicle, the court may:
   (A)   Impose a fine, not exceeding fifty dollars ($50.00) provided that such child shall not be imprisoned for failure to pay such fine,
   (B)   May revoke the driver's license of such child, or suspend the same for such time as may be fixed by the court, and
   (C)   May order any motor vehicle owned or operated by such child to be impounded by the city probation officer for such time, not exceeding sixty (60) days, as shall be fixed by the court, provided, however, that if the court shall find that the operation of such motor vehicle was without the consent of the owner, then such vehicle shall not be impounded. Upon nonpayment of any fine herein provided for, the court may order that any motor vehicle owned by said child or operated by said child with the consent of the owner shall be impounded until the fine shall be paid, or may order that the driver's license of such child shall be taken up and held by city probation officer until payment of said fine, or cause both said motor vehicle and driver's license to be taken up and impounded until such fine shall be paid. No child shall be committed to or held in any detention facility or jail by reason of nonpayment of said fine. (Ord. 1316, 10-6-1969)
