I’d say illegal drug use is a bit harsher than traffic violations and is a good judgement of character.

14 states treat first-time possession of a personal-consumption amount of marijuana like a minor traffic violation: a fine, but no prison time or criminal record.

Alaska
California
Colorado
Connecticut
Maine
Massachusetts
Minnesota
Mississippi
Nebraska
Nevada
New York
North Carolina
Ohio
Oregon

and is a good judgement of character.

Why? Speeding is a more clear and present danger to others than marijuana use.
