How is illegal parking of small vehicles handled?

Obstructing the passage of other vehicles or pedestrians will result in a fine. Here are the relevant details: 1. Article 93 stipulates: "For violations of road traffic safety laws and regulations regarding parking or temporary stopping of motor vehicles, traffic police or relevant authorities should first point out the illegal act, issue a verbal warning, and order immediate departure. 2. On-the-spot penalty: If the driver refuses to leave and the vehicle obstructs other vehicles or pedestrians, the traffic police will issue an on-the-spot penalty decision imposing a fine. When the driver is not present, after the vehicle receives a ticket, the driver must report to the designated traffic police department within 15 working days to handle the penalty. Failure to handle it on time will result in late fees, so it is advisable to address the ticket promptly.

I once parked illegally and got a ticket. Later, I found out that illegal parking for cars usually results in a fine of around 200 yuan and may also lead to point deductions. That time, I parked too long on a roadside in the city, and a traffic officer came to issue the ticket. I had to go to the traffic police station to pay the fine, and delaying until the next day would incur late fees. I advise fellow drivers to pay attention to parking signs and avoid parking in prohibited areas, such as near yellow lines or fire hydrants, especially during peak hours when enforcement is stricter. Nowadays, many places have electronic surveillance, and handling it promptly through mobile apps like 12123 can save a lot of hassle.

Having driven for decades, I remember that illegal parking might only result in a verbal warning in the past. Now it's much stricter—once caught, you could face a 200-yuan fine and 1-point deduction. If captured by an electronic eye, you'll receive an SMS notification, and the matter can be handled online, saving you a trip to the police station. However, if you park in a way that severely blocks the road or an emergency exit, your car might be towed immediately, which is even more troublesome. You'd have to go to a designated parking lot to pay the towing fee and fine to retrieve your car. It's advisable to find a legal parking spot to avoid losing more for a small gain, ensuring convenience for yourself and safety for others.

I got a parking violation last month and received a notification on my phone through the traffic app. I checked the record directly on 12123 and paid a 200 yuan fine. The process was super fast with no queuing. Usually, I pay more attention to parking signs to avoid no-parking zones, so I won't get fined or penalized with points. Towing is rare unless the car is seriously blocking the road.
