How long does it take for running a red light to show up on 12123?

Running a red light violation typically appears on 12123 within 3 working days, and it will not exceed 15 days at most. Traffic Management 12123 is a mobile APP developed and technically supported by the Traffic Management Research Institute of the Ministry of Public Security. This software serves a wide range of users across the country, including motor vehicle owners and drivers. The public can register with real names to open an account and enjoy over 130 services in 10 major categories provided by the Internet-based comprehensive traffic safety service management platform, such as driving test and vehicle inspection appointments, license and certificate processing, violation handling and fine payment, travel information, information inquiries, notifications and reminders, information disclosure, key object management, traffic safety publicity, and business consultation.
Last time I ran a red light and got caught too, I was anxiously checking the 12123 app every day. Generally, it takes about three to five days for the violation to show up, and if you're lucky, it might appear the next day. However, in some areas with slower processing, you might have to wait seven or eight days, especially during holidays when it’s bound to take even longer. Don’t stress yourself by checking every day—just wait a week before looking again. If there’s no record after 15 days, it’s likely you weren’t caught, which is a stroke of luck. But it’s best not to run red lights—not only is the fine painful, but you also lose six points on your license, which just isn’t worth it!
