Florida Traffic Violations

People who drive in must obey the rules of the road.  When people disobey the rules of the road while driving, they are committing traffic offenses.  While most traffic violations are considered minor, like failure to signal or making an illegal turn, some are considered severe.  This is especially true in cases involving the injury of a third party or a motor vehicle accident. 

Any person who violates the rules of the road can be charged with a traffic offense.  Most traffic offenses are classified as misdemeanors or infractions.  However, if the violation led to property damage or bodily harm, the charges can be enhanced.  Charges can also be enhanced if a person has prior traffic violations on his/her driving record.
