What is classified as a moving violation?

A moving violation refers specifically to offenses that occur while a vehicle is in motion. This includes any actions taken by a driver that violate traffic laws during the operation of the vehicle. Therefore, traffic offenses involving vehicle operation directly constitute moving violations since they can impact roadway safety and traffic flow.

In contrast, fixed offenses, like parking violations, occur when the vehicle is stationary and do not involve the act of driving. Similarly, while driving without a license can be related to vehicle operation, it is classified more as a regulatory violation than a moving violation. A citation for public disturbance does not involve vehicle operation and is unrelated to traffic laws.

By focusing on actions performed while the vehicle is in motion, the classification of B accurately captures the essence of what constitutes a moving violation.
