Identificación y copias de multas de tráfico en Carolina del Sur

Explicación Simple

Cuando te ponen una multa de tráfico, cada multa tiene un número especial para reconocerla. Dependiendo de cómo se haga la multa, habrá diferentes copias que se envían a distintas oficinas, como la del DMV o la policía.

Es como cuando un profesor te da una tarea en clase y te pide que entregues copias a diferentes amigos para que todos tengan una. Cada copia tiene un color diferente para que cada uno sepa a quién pertenece.

Ejemplo Práctico

Imagina que Juan fue detenido por exceso de velocidad. El oficial le entrega una multa con un número único. Esta multa tiene una copia azul para Juan, una amarilla que se envía al DMV, una blanca para la policía y una verde que se queda con el oficial. Así, todos tienen un registro de lo que sucedió.
