Can traffic violation records from three years ago be checked?
1 Answers
Yes, as long as the violation records have been processed, they can still be checked, but will be marked as 'processed'. There is a certain process and time required from when a violation is captured to when it is confirmed and posted online (on the traffic police violation processing platform), usually taking 3-5 days. Not all violations can be confirmed and uploaded immediately. Due to differences in violation location, violation behavior, and penalty methods, the date of confirmation and upload may vary. Below are common traffic violations: Running a red light: Running a red light is the most common violation. Since the new traffic regulations were introduced, running a red light results in a deduction of 6 points at once; Driving without a license: For drivers who continue to drive while their license is suspended, a fine and 15 days of detention will be imposed. For those driving without a license or with a revoked license, 15 days of detention and a fine will be imposed; Overloading or overcapacity: For passenger vehicles exceeding the rated capacity by less than 20% or freight vehicles exceeding the rated load by less than 30%, a fine will be imposed. For passenger vehicles exceeding the rated capacity by 20% or more or freight vehicles exceeding the rated load by 30% or more, a fine will be imposed; Drunk driving: For driving under the influence of alcohol, a 3-month suspension of the driver's license and a fine will be imposed. For driving a commercial vehicle under the influence of alcohol, a 3-month suspension of the driver's license and a fine will be imposed; Speeding: For driving over the speed limit by 50% or more, a fine and revocation of the driver's license will be imposed.
