Highway Traffic Act

The Highway Traffic Act is a set of laws that governs how vehicles and pedestrians interact on roadways in a jurisdiction, typically at the provincial or state level. It covers rules for driving, including speed limits, vehicle registration, licensing, and penalties for violations like speeding or driving under the influence. The Act aims to ensure safety on roads, regulate traffic flow, and protect all users of the road, including cyclists and pedestrians. Understanding these laws helps promote responsible behavior and reduces the risk of accidents.
