Can running a red light be handled in a different location?
1 Answers
According to Article 5 of the "Procedures for Handling Road Traffic Violations", running a red light can be handled in a different location. For red light violations recorded by traffic monitoring technology, the traffic management departments of public security organs at the place where the violation occurred, was discovered, or where the motor vehicle is registered all have jurisdiction. However, if the violator or the owner/manager of the motor vehicle disputes the facts of the violation recorded by traffic monitoring technology, they cannot raise objections in a different location. Methods to avoid running red lights while driving: When there are arrow signal lights, observe the arrow lights; otherwise, observe the circular lights. When the red light is on, the front of the vehicle must not cross the stop line. When the yellow light is on, the front of the vehicle must not cross the stop line. When the green light just starts flashing, if you are close and moving fast, you should proceed, as stopping might be impossible and you could cross the stop line. If you are far away, moving slowly, or the intersection is congested, you should stop. When driving in the city, develop the habit of looking for traffic lights whenever you see a crosswalk or stop line at an intersection.
