California Motor Vehicle Code

The California Motor Vehicle Code (MVC) is a comprehensive set of laws that govern the operation, registration, and safety of vehicles within California. It establishes driver licensing requirements, vehicle registration procedures, traffic rules, and penalties for violations. The MVC aims to ensure safe and efficient transportation by setting standards for drivers and vehicles, promoting compliance, and enabling law enforcement to manage traffic laws effectively. It applies to all motor vehicles on public roads and helps maintain order, safety, and accountability in California’s transportation system.
