Question:
Are traffic violations considered a debt on the deceased, and is it obligatory to pay them off?
Answer:
Yes, if he had a fine due to an accident that occurred on his part, resulting in fines for the owners of the cars or the owners of the lives or bodies that were harmed, and fines were decided upon for them, then it is a debt in his liability that is paid on his behalf while he is dead, either from his estate or because someone does him a favor and pays this fine for him. If it is not paid, it remains in his liability and he will be held accountable for it on the Day of Resurrection. Yes.
