Sec. 9-125.
The appropriate highway authorities shall seasonably prosecute
for all fines and penalties provided for in this Code for violations
committed on highways under their respective jurisdictions.
Whenever any person complains of a violation of this Code to the highway
authority that has jurisdiction over the particular highway where the
violation of this Code is alleged to have been committed, such highway
authority shall proceed to investigate as to the reason for such complaint
and, if the complaint is found to be just, shall at once proceed to
prosecution of the offender.
In case the highway authority fails to prosecute, complaint may be made
by any person before any court of proper jurisdiction.
