Proposals Consider Administrative Traffic Court Reforms in 1977
North Carolina lawmakers study traffic offenses to ease district court congestion.

Several states already use traffic adjudicators and hearing officers to handle waivers and fines. In 1975 NC prisons held 72 traffic offenders, including hundreds drunk driving cases.
