State Motor Vehicle Codes

State Motor Vehicle Codes are laws established by each state's government that regulate the operation, registration, and licensing of vehicles and drivers within that state. They set rules for vehicle safety, traffic laws, driver licensing requirements, and penalties for violations. These codes ensure safe and consistent road use, help prevent accidents, and facilitate the enforcement of driving laws by law enforcement agencies. Essentially, they provide a legal framework to maintain order and safety on state roads.
