(1) Whenever a peace officer is authorized to arrest a person without a warrant, the officer may instead issue the person a notice to appear. (2) The notice must: (a) be in writing; (b) state the person's name and address, if known; (c) set forth the nature of the offense; (d) be signed by the issuing officer; (e) direct the person to appear before a court at a certain time and place; and (f) state that failure to appear may result in the suspension of the person's driver's license. (3) Upon failure of the person to appear, a summons or arrest warrant may be issued.
