Do I have to pay the fine for traffic violations immediately?

Traffic violations are divided into: on-site violations, which must be paid within 15 days. Non-on-site violations can be handled before the vehicle's annual inspection. The following is extended content: On-site penalties: Violations subject to on-site penalties. For traffic tickets issued on-site by traffic police and signed by the driver, the penalty must be processed within 15 working days. After this period, late fees will automatically accrue at a rate of 3%, with the cap not exceeding the original fine. If the penalty involves 12 points and is not processed within 15 working days, the driver's license will be revoked. For violations where a penalty notice has already been printed, the violation must be processed within 15 working days; otherwise, the same penalties as above will apply. Non-on-site penalties: Electronic police record violations. Since electronic police records are technical monitoring devices that record vehicle violations, and these violations are not signed by the driver, there is no fixed deadline for processing. They only need to be handled before the vehicle's annual inspection.
