Detected speeding violations (as measured by GPS)

Running red lights

Proceeding through a red light

Accelerating to pass through an intersection during a signal transition

Starting without observing traffic signals

Initiating movement during the transition to a green signal

Ignoring stop signs

Failure to make a complete stop at intersections or designated areas controlled by a stop sign

Traffic violations occurring within intersections

Improper stopping positions, incorrect turning techniques, obstruction of pedestrians, and interference with oncoming traffic during right turns

Distracted driving

Engagement in non-driving activities, such as smartphone usage, operating a navigation system, or adjustment of audio controls during vehicle operation.

Sudden acceleration

Acceleration exceeding 0.5 G as recorded by the accelerometer of the drive recorder

Sudden steering

Steering exceeding 0.5 G as recorded by the accelerometer of the drive recorder

Sudden braking
