Definition
违章 (wéi zhāng) specifically means violating traffic or driving regulations — it's the go-to word for traffic tickets, parking fines, and driving offenses. 违反 is the general verb for breaking any rule or law; 违规 is broader, for rules in any context (sports, work, school). 违法 means breaking the law (a crime), which is more serious than 违章.
