Would violation of traffic laws, such as going through a stop sign, be considered an aveira according to ddd?
Would failure to report extra income, thus avoiding paying taxes, also be an aveira?
_______________________________________________
AIUI violation of usually enforced traffic laws would be an aveira of not heeding DDD (the nature of DDD is subject to debate) but the violation of taxes might be both that as well as (according to R'HS at least) stealing since the chiyuv is based on consensual "partnership" agreement.
