You observe a vehicle  run the red light and initiate a traffic stop. Upon approaching the  vehicle you observe a driver, a crying toddler in a car seat and a large  number of grocery bags. You advise the driver why they have been pulled  over. The driver quickly apologizes and states that they were  distracted by the crying child. Upon conducting a driver’s license check  you are advised the driver had an arrest in 1998 for “driving under the  influence” and a ticket for running a red light in 2012. Describe how you would handle this situation.
