Fail to yield at an intersection results in which civil fine?

• A. $105
• B. $40
• C. $75
• D. $255

Answer: (B)

Failing to yield at an intersection is treated as a civil traffic violation with a preset monetary penalty. In Massachusetts, that specific offense carries a forty-dollar fine. This reflects the approach of using civil fines for minor violations, allowing for a quick resolution without a criminal case. The other numbers correspond to different offenses or penalties, not this particular violation, which is why forty dollars is the correct amount.
