Law traffic
Traffic laws are the laws which regulate vehicles and
other traffic including pedestrians, animals and other conveyances. Traffic
laws and regulations vary from place to place. In many countries, the rules of
the road are codified, setting out the legal requirements and punishments for
breaking them. In the U.S, traffic laws are regulated by
the states and municipalities through their respective traffic codes. Most of
these are based at least in part on the Uniform Vehicle Code, but there are
variations from state to state.
