Is impeding traffic a moving violation?
I was sort of rubbernecking at an accident in my city when a cop pulled me over and gave me a ticket for impeding traffic. Is impeding traffic considered a moving violation?

Impeding traffic may or may not be considered a moving violation—it depends on your state. To find out, try consulting your state’s DMV page. Many states also publish their state laws online.
Common moving violations include:
- Speeding
- Running a red light or stop sign
- Following too closely
- Driving under the influenceof drugs or alcohol
Moving violations often carry the penalties of fines and demerit points added to your driving record.
If you start collecting traffic tickets, you run the risk of seeing an increase in your
car insurance
rates. That’s where the Jerry
