One per mile?

More than that in a busy/congested area?

Any thoughts.
Probably two to three times a day.

Over the speed limit mostly.

My guess is that an average driver probably makes about a half-dozen.

I think these are unavoidable

1. Over speeding
2. Lane change without indicator
3. complete stop at stop sign or turning right on red where allowed

For the population of the United States exactly 3.100546 billion traffic violations are commited per day. By my calculations at least.

I make about 10 a day. I mostly go above the speed limit or switch lanes without turning on my blinker.

Easily and consistently multiple times every time I start the engine. None of my vehicles are legal for driving on the street.

If I continuously speed for a 50 mile stretch, does that count as one violation?
