What is a Misdemeanor Traffic Violation?
Most traffic tickets are issued for “infractions,” which are minor moving violations. Very serious traffic offenses are categorized as “felonies.” However, some traffic offenses fall into the middle category of misdemeanors. Misdemeanors can result in very high fines, imprisonment or loss of driving privileges. Although misdemeanors differ from state to state, there are certain principles that apply to almost all misdemeanors.
