In psychology, and specially in the school of psychoanalysis, the term projection refers to a defense mechanism in which the individual defends himself/herself against anxiety generating impulses by denying them in themselves and thinking they belong to others. In other words, they reject their feelings in themselves and think that it is the others the ones who posses these impulses/thoughts/attitudes, or it is the other ones who have these behaviors too.
In this example, Maria has gotten several tickets for running red lights and when she is asked why, she says that she is certain others did the same, including the judge. In other words, Maria is putting her ideas/thoughts thinking they actually belong to others and she is rejecting them in herself. Therefore, this would be an example of projection.
