Can traffic violations be checked within three days?
2 Answers
It may not be possible to check within 3 days. Generally, traffic violations can be checked within 3-7 days after they occur, and no later than 13 working days. Here is the relevant information: 1. Reason: This is because the traffic police department needs time for data collection, organization, review, entry, and transmission, which usually takes up to a week to be uploaded online. If the violation was captured by a camera (non-on-site violation), it may take up to 15 days to appear in the system. 2. On-site violation: If you were stopped by a traffic officer on-site and signed a confirmation, you must handle the violation at the local traffic police department within 15 days. Failure to do so will result in a daily late fee of 3% of the original fine, but the total late fee will not exceed double the original fine amount.
I've experienced this before! Last time I crossed a solid line in the city, there was no record when I checked on the traffic management app 12123 on the third day, but it appeared on the fifth day. The traffic department needs time to review video or photo evidence before uploading violations to the system, which usually takes 1-3 working days. However, it depends on the situation: highway violations might be processed faster, while those caught by electronic police typically take about 48 hours; if you get a ticket from an officer on the spot, the data entry might take even longer. It's safer to check again after three days - system delays are quite normal. By the way, remember to handle it promptly as late fees apply after 15 days!
