In the case of accidental homicide by motor vehicle, when no arrest is made at the scene of the accident and a complaint is later filed against the driver, the court shall not issue a warrant for the arrest of the driver unless there is reason to believe that the driver will flee to avoid a summons or unless circumstances within the discretion of the court require the issuance of a warrant. Instead of a warrant, a summons shall be issued and served upon the driver to have him appear for arraignment and plea at a certain time. History: Created 1976 Ky. Acts ch. 373, sec. 1.
