Traffic violations are offenses that occur when a driver does not follow the rules of the road. Common examples include speeding, running a red light, and driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. These violations can lead to fines, points on a driver's license, and even legal consequences, depending on the severity of the offense.
Law enforcement agencies, such as the police, monitor traffic to ensure safety and compliance with laws. When a driver is caught committing a violation, they may receive a ticket, which is a formal notice of the offense. Repeated violations can result in increased penalties and potential loss of driving privileges.
