Accumulating 11 points within 18 months can lead to a suspension of your driving privileges. It's important for drivers to adhere to traffic signals to ensure safety and avoid penalties.
A stop sign is a key example of a traffic control device that can significantly reduce the likelihood of automobile accidents.
