Traffic Violations
A traffic violation occurs when a driver violates one of the laws that regulate motor vehicle operation on streets or highways. A traffic ticket, or traffic citation, is a minor offense, but it can have serious consequences for the driver. Traffic violations appear on your driving record, affect insurance premiums, and result in costly fines and legal fees.
