Moving traffic violations are violations that occur while the vehicle is in motion.  They are committed by the driver of the vehicle and can include violations such as speeding, driving under the influence (DUI), running through a red light or stop sign, failing to yield, reckless driving, crossing the center line, etc.

Parking tickets are issued for non-moving violations and are issued to the vehicle owner.  Usually the first indication of having received a parking ticket is the finding of the ticket under the windshield wiper.

Most moving traffic violations are misdemeanors.  Penalties usually involve a fine being imposed and a number of points being assessed against the driver's license.  If a driver accumulates enough points, he or she may have their drivers license suspended or be required to attend a defensive driving class.   Serious violations involving injury or death can become felonies carrying severe penalties including imprisonment.
