Relation to uniform traffic ticket and complaint.

Adoption by a county or city board of education located in Mobile County, of the procedures under this part and the enforcement of this part by Mobile County or a municipality located in Mobile County, may not affect current procedure and prosecutions commenced by issuance of a uniform traffic ticket and complaint by a law enforcement officer or otherwise. The issuance of a notice of a violation as authorized by this part shall be subordinate to the issuance of a uniform traffic ticket and complaint for the same action if issued by a sworn law enforcement officer, and issuance of a uniform traffic ticket and complaint for a school bus violation shall preclude issuance of a notice of violation as authorized by this part. If both a uniform traffic ticket and complaint and a notice of violation as authorized by this part are issued for the same action, the one issued by a sworn law enforcement officer pursuant to Section 32-5A-154 shall control and shall constitute a defense to the other.
