    5  (1)(a) For purposes of administering this section, the
    6  department, a county, or a municipality may authorize a traffic
    7  infraction enforcement officer under s. 316.640 to issue a
    8  traffic citation for a violation of s. 316.074(1) or s.
    9  316.075(1)(c)1. A notice of violation and a traffic citation may
   10  not be issued for failure to stop at a red light at an
   11  intersection where right-hand turns on a red signal are
   12  permissible if the driver is making a right-hand turn, the
   13  vehicle is traveling less than 15 miles per hour, the vehicle is
   14  not involved in or is not the cause of a crash, and no
   15  pedestrians are in the crosswalk and on the same side of the
   16  centerline of the cross-street as the side traversed by the
   17  turning vehicle in a careful and prudent manner at an
   18  intersection where right-hand turns are permissible. A notice of
   19  violation and a traffic citation may not be issued under this
   20  section if the driver of the vehicle came to a complete stop
   21  after crossing the stop line and before turning right if
   22  permissible at a red light, but failed to stop before crossing
   23  over the stop line or other point at which a stop is required.
   24  This paragraph does not prohibit a review of information from a
   25  traffic infraction detector by an authorized employee or agent
   26  of the department, a county, or a municipality before issuance
   27  of the traffic citation by the traffic infraction enforcement
   28  officer. This paragraph does not prohibit the department, a
   29  county, or a municipality from issuing notification as provided
   30  in paragraph (b) to the registered owner of the motor vehicle
   31  involved in the violation of s. 316.074(1) or s. 316.075(1)(c)1.
