(Previous) record of traffic offences
Explanation:
"Antecedentes penales" is "previous convictions", so I'm betting "viales" means traffic fines and other offences.

There are "Certificado de Antecedentes" for all sorts of things (penales, fiscales, viales...) as you'll see if you Google it - it gets over 26 million hits.
