California Vehicle Codes (VC)

The California Vehicle code refers to a rulebook that contains all traffic laws that are used for any possible situation regarding vehicles. This rulebook serves as a guideline for officials when they encounter a situation or crime involving a vehicle. Police use these guidelines when giving citizens a ticket for a traffic violation or when the DMV issues out a registration or license. The California Department of Motor Vehicles does sell this 1000-page rulebook, but you could usually look it up online for free. Some examples of the codes used for vehicle violations are as follows:

 

14601.1(VC): driving with a Suspended License: this is a traffic ticket that can be charged as a misdemeanor or an infraction.

 

12500(VC): driving Without a License.

 

23152(VC): driving under the Influence: driving under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs and driving with a blood alcohol content of 0.08% or higher.

 

Included in this book is everything that has to do with the rules of the roads and driving such as: Registration and titling of vehicles, Anti-theft laws, Driver’s license procedures and processes, Financial responsibility and car insurance, Rules of the Road, Towing and loading rules and regulations, Transporting hazardous materials, Off-highway/off-road vehicles, Bicycle laws and rules, and Safety Regulations.

 

This rulebook is constantly updated every time there is a change in any of the laws, so you could always trust that any establishment that uses this rulebook has the most up-to-date version of the vehicle codes. Not only does the vehicle code contain all of the laws of the road, but it also contains all of the laws regarding the vehicle itself.

 

The reason you would need rules for a vehicle is to ensure that it is safe to drive on the road. Without this vehicle code, then people would be able to drive dangerous cars that may not have any safety features or could be harmful to the atmosphere around the vehicle, which would make it dangerous to be around.

 

These regulations are intensely specific and even have guidelines to the equipment inside of a car as well as the mechanical regulations. The purpose of having regulations to monitor the mechanics of a vehicle also has to do with the safety of society.

 

Some features that may have been influenced by these rules are governors placed on cars to control the maximum speed a car will be reached. The governor is placed as a safety feature to make sure that the driver will not reach speeds that are considered to be dangerous on California roads. This rulebook also contains laws covering automotive dealer, farm vehicles, lemon laws, odometer reporting rules, required equipment, and much more. The vehicle code exhausts every possible aspect of vehicles and makes sure that there is nothing out there that could be harmful to the people of this state.

 

Whenever someone thinks about buying a vehicle or has bought a vehicle that turns out to be defective, then you would consult vehicle code to determine your rights and protections. This way, the buyer would fully understand his or her position and would be able to fix the situation more properly.

 

It is highly recommended that a buyer should be aware of his or her rights before going out to purchase a car so that they could ask the right questions to determine if it is safe to purchase that car from that dealer or person.

 

Some people may be wondering when anyone would need to use this rulebook besides when dealing with purchasing a car, but anyone may need this book if you’re trying to settle with a car insurance company over a minor traffic accident or if you plan on fighting a ticket in court. This book will make more sense of the traffic violation and then you could make a more informed decision whether or not you are at fault or were wrongly ticketed.

 

Whenever you would like to read about a certain infraction, you could just look up the rulebook online and search for that infraction by looking up the code numbers referenced on your ticket. Any infraction or traffic violation will have a code in front of the short description which is used to organize all of the rules in the rulebook.

 

This makes it much easier for people as well as police to look up a certain rule or infraction. Also, when you know how exactly you violated a certain traffic violation, then you will be able to make sure that you do not commit the same violation again.

 

If you have any questions regarding vehicle codes and your rights, then please feel free to contact one of our agents at Sunrise Bail Bonds Alhambra at any time.
