How many points is failure to obey a traffic sign or signal worth?

  1. 2 points

  2. 3 points

  3. 4 points

  4. 5 points

The correct answer is: 3 points

Failure to obey a traffic sign or signal is worth 3 points on a driving record. This means that if a driver were to be caught disobeying a traffic sign or signal, their driving record would receive 3 points. Option A is incorrect because it states that failure to obey a traffic sign or signal is worth 2 points, which is not the correct amount. Option C and D are also incorrect because they state that failure to obey a traffic sign or signal is worth 4 points and 5 points, respectively. This is incorrect as 3 points is the correct amount, as stated in option B.
