The study objectives are to evaluate the feasibility of administrative adjudication of traffic offenses reducing the backlog of court cases caused by the increased volume of traffic citations being issued, and to improve traffic safety in California. The objectives will be met by the implementation of more efficient procedures to adjudicate minor traffic cases, and through more effective identification and control of poor drivers. The report explores the costs and benefits associated with administrative adjudication in terms of such areas as traffic safety, the courts, economic impact, legal considerations and public opinion. It concludes that administrative adjudication is both legally feasible as well as economically attractive. In addition, enhanced traffic safety and more effective court resource allocation would likely result. Also, the public reaction was highly favorable.
