Traffic violation and law enforcement
Living in the United States, driving is essential to many aspect of life such as driving to the grocery stores and driving to work. As automobile transportation becoming more of a necessity for the economic development of the United States, more people are driving on the road, and therefore, regulation regarding how a person should drive is formed.
