Driver Liability for Pre-Regularization Traffic Violation Fine

A driver, having signed a document acknowledging receipt of a car's registration certificate and promising to regularize the registration within a specified period, was still liable for a traffic violation fine issued before the regularization, despite the subsequent administrative fulfillment of the obligation, because the offense occurred during the period when the document was not yet officially registered in the driver's name. The court upheld the conviction, reasoning that the obligation to regularize the registration was personal and immediate, and the driver could not escape liability for the penalty incurred during the time they were in breach of the legal requirement to have the vehicle officially registered under their name.
