(c) An enforcement officer shall have the authority to remove any number plates from a motor vehicle which is being operated by a person in violation of subsection (a) or (b) of this section. The commissioner shall be notified in writing and may, in his or her sole discretion, cause the plates to be returned to the registered owner or lessee for good cause shown. The vehicle shall be towed to the tow operator’s place of business and shall not be released until the tow operator is shown proof that the plates have been returned to the registered owner or lessee, or that the vehicle has been reregistered, and the towing and storage fees are paid.
(f)(g) In establishing a prima facie case against a person accused of violating this section, the court and the judicial bureau shall accept as admit into evidence a printout attested to by the law enforcement officer as the person’s motor vehicle record showing convictions and resulting license suspensions. The admitted motor vehicle record and the officer’s testimony shall establish a permissive inference in a criminal action and a rebuttable presumption in a civil action, including actions pending before the judicial bureau, that the person was under suspension on the dates and time periods set forth in the record. No certified copy shall be required from the department of motor vehicles to establish the permissive inference or the rebuttable presumption.
