A guaranteed arrest or bail bond certificate presented by the person whose signature appears thereon shall be accepted in lieu of cash bail in an amount not to exceed five thousand dollars ($5,000) as an arrest or bail bond to guarantee the appearance of the person in any court in this state, at the time required by the court, when the person is arrested for violation of any traffic law of the state or traffic ordinance of any municipality therein relating to the operation of a motor vehicle.
