Can traffic violations from three years ago still be processed?

Traffic violations from three years ago can still be processed. However, failure to pay the fine on time will result in an additional 3% penalty per day based on the fine amount. Here are some driving precautions for beginners: 1. Check tires: High temperatures and high speeds can easily cause tire blowouts, which may lead to loss of control and accidents. Before driving, carefully inspect all four tires, and it's best to adjust tire pressure at a professional repair shop. Don’t forget to check the spare tire to ensure it’s intact and properly inflated. During breaks, also inspect the tires by tapping them with your fist to check for abnormalities. If there’s a leak, repair it immediately. 2. Avoid inconsistent speeds: On highways, maintain a steady speed (within the speed limit). High speeds can make beginners nervous and cause steering deviations, leading to accidents. However, driving too slowly, especially below 80 km/h under normal conditions, can create a visual misjudgment for vehicles approaching from behind, increasing the risk of rear-end collisions. Before entering the highway, set a speed limit to establish a "personal speed" for future highway driving. 3. Avoid silent overtaking: Many beginners lack experience when overtaking on highways, forgetting to use turn signals or starting to overtake without proper observation. If the following vehicle is too close or also attempting to overtake, competing for the lane may cause a collision.

I've come across quite a few cases of traffic violations left unattended for three years. With over a decade of driving experience, I know letting violations pile up is no joke. Technically, they can still be handled since traffic police systems keep records—as long as it's in the file, it can be processed. But here's the big problem: fines increase. For example, an original 200-yuan penalty might double to 400 yuan or more with late fees. In China, overdue violations can incur over 50% additional fines. Worse, your annual vehicle inspection will be blocked—fail that, and you can't drive. It might even affect your license points or credit record. My advice? Head to the traffic police station ASAP to check. Don’t try to save small money only to lose bigger. Bring your vehicle license and driver’s license, ask clearly at the counter, and get it settled early for peace of mind. Safe driving matters most—letting small issues snowball isn’t worth it.

Buddy, unpaid traffic tickets for three years can still be processed, don't panic! I talk about this often in my daily driving. The records are still there with the traffic police—as long as they haven't been purged from the system, just head to the service window. But it'll cost you—fines might double, like a $300 penalty could jump to $600, plus late fees. The bigger issue is that if tickets aren't cleared before your vehicle's annual inspection, you'll fail outright and can't hit the road. My advice: download the Traffic Management 12123 app to check ticket details first—saves a wasted trip. Handle it promptly to avoid chain reactions, like credit score hits. Bottom line: don't procrastinate. Safe driving is about following rules—keeping small matters sorted keeps you secure.

I looked into this right after buying my car. If you haven't handled traffic violations for three years, you can still make up for it, but the fines may increase. For example, an original fine of 100 yuan might become over 200 yuan. If you don't settle the violations, you definitely won't pass the annual inspection. I heard from a friend that prolonged delays might even affect your driving credit. Nowadays, the traffic management app is very convenient, so check your records promptly to avoid compromising driving safety. It's better to handle it sooner to save trouble.
