The presence of an unattended automobile or other motor vehicle parked on the streets of any municipality in violation of an ordinance of such municipality shall raise a prima facie presumption that the registered owner of the automobile or other motor vehicle committed or authorized the parking violation, and the burden of proof shall be upon the registered owner to show otherwise.
