Can be, if citizen leaves their name. Called citizen informant. If anonymous, police must corroborate info before they stop.

Depends on who the "other citizen" is and what detailed information is provided. Reilability of the information is the core issue. Often, the officer must himself observe a traffic violation prior to the stop.
