2. Violation of such a law or ordinance is evidence 
 
that the violator engages in conduct which is likely to endanger the safety of persons and property.

 
 
3. The continuance in force of a license to drive is 
 
predicated upon compliance with laws and ordinances relating to the operation of motor vehicles, in whichever jurisdiction the vehicle is operated.

 
(b) It is the policy of each of the party states to:

 
 
1. Promote compliance with the laws, ordinances and 
 
administrative rules and regulations relating to the operation of motor vehicles by their operators in each of the jurisdictions where such operators drive motor vehicles.

 
 
2. Make the reciprocal recognition of licenses to
