All traffic fines have a maximum fine of $200.

• A. True
• B. Not always
• C. Some exceed
• D. False

Answer: (D)

Fines for traffic violations aren’t fixed by a single universal rule. They’re set by the laws of each jurisdiction and by the specific offense, so there isn’t a universal maximum of $200 that applies everywhere. In many places, the base fine for a given violation can be higher, and additional court costs, surcharges, or penalties can push the total well beyond $200. Because of these variations, the statement isn’t always true—some fines do exceed $200 depending on where and for what offense you’re cited.
