Under which statute is Obstructing Traffic categorized?

Obstructing traffic is categorized under V.C. § 22651. This statute provides law enforcement with the authority to remove vehicles from public roadways that are obstructing traffic, thereby ensuring the safety and efficiency of vehicular movement. The essence of this regulation is to maintain public order on the roads, allowing for unimpeded travel and reducing the risk of accidents that could arise from blocked lanes or pathways.

This statute typically applies in situations where a vehicle is creating a hazard by standing or parked in a way that disrupts the flow of traffic. It establishes the legal framework for law enforcement to take action, thus helping to balance the need for public safety with legitimate vehicles’ presence on roadways.

The other statutes listed pertain to different legal matters, such as driving under the influence or drug offenses, and do not govern the specific issue of obstructing traffic.
