Does the 114 vehicle relocation notice affect the car owner?
2 Answers
Under normal circumstances, the 114 vehicle relocation notice has no impact on the car owner as long as they comply with the request to move their vehicle. However, if the owner refuses to cooperate, traffic police authorities will intervene. Below are relevant details about vehicle relocation: 1. When the owner agrees to move but their contact number cannot be found: Call 114 and provide the vehicle's make and license plate number. 114 will then notify the owner via phone call or text message, and the owner can come to handle the situation upon receiving the notification. Alternatively, check the insurance decal on the windshield to find the insurer's contact number, then have the insurance company notify the owner. 2. When the owner refuses to move the vehicle: If the other party refuses to relocate their car, besides calling 110, you can also dial 122 for assistance. 122 is China's dedicated hotline for traffic accident handling. After providing the other party's vehicle and license plate information, if communication fails, 122 will dispatch a tow truck. Note that calling 122 or 114 incurs no charges.
That day I was in a hurry to park and blocked someone's way. I was quite relieved to receive the 114 car-moving call, otherwise the police would have ticketed me for a few hundred bucks. This service really saves car owners trouble, after all, who hasn't parked temporarily? It contacts you to move your car through the backend, fast and effortless, avoiding towing or conflicts. But there's some privacy concern—strangers can find your phone number through your license plate, which could lead to harassment or scams, and that would be annoying. So I always try to find an empty spot when parking, and remind my friends not to rely on it too much. Overall, 114 is a well-intentioned tool that reduces violations and neighborhood disputes, promoting harmony.
