Yes, I think so.  You would need to look into specific laws and regulations to be sure.

I think so.  I’m not sure about all the details of this, but my impression is that the rules for government officials are at least as strict as the rules for people in the general public.  That said, because they’re in a special position, they may be more likely to be in charge of evaluating their own actions and therefore less likely to need to have that evaluated by others.

If government officials are at fault in traffic accidents, do they get fined like anyone else?
user
I think it depends on the level of fault. In cases of being at fault, you can be fined or put in prison. For example, if you are involved in a road accident and you were paying full attention to the road and your actions contributed to the accident, you are more likely to be fined, put in prison, or have your license revoked. If you were driving without a license, or driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol, your chances of getting into a traffic accident are higher, and so are your chances of being fined or put in prison.

Do the same rules apply to government officials as people who are not in the government?
