to the fact that there is no penalty for

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language patterned
after the second sentence of Article 43, § 2, as
that sentence relates to railroad locomotives.

Subsection (c) of this section is new language
substituted for the parenthetical reference to
"after hearing". The new language is patterned
after similar provisions elsewhere in this
article. See, e.g., § 3-402 of this article.

In subsection (d) of this section, the reference
to a violation being a misdemeanor is new
language added for clarity.
