Traffic offenses are violations of laws that regulate vehicle operation on roads. Common examples include speeding, running a red light, and driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. These offenses can lead to fines, points on a driver's license, or even jail time, depending on the severity of the violation. Law enforcement agencies, such as police departments, monitor traffic to ensure safety and compliance with traffic laws. When a driver commits a traffic offense, they may receive a citation, which requires them to pay a fine or appear in court. Repeated offenses can result in increased penalties and potential loss of driving privileges.
