How long does it take to receive a traffic violation notice?

The time it takes to receive a traffic violation notice can be categorized as follows: 1. For minor violations, you will typically receive a notice within 10 minutes; 2. If the violation occurs on a highway, you will receive the notice within 1 to 2 days; 3. For violations on national highways or other special roads, the processing time may be longer, usually between 1 to 7 days. If you do not receive a violation notice within 15 days, it means no violation was recorded. Always prioritize safety while driving. Safe driving is based on following the rules. Traffic violations are not established for the purpose of fines or penalty points, but to ensure safety.
I've been driving for almost twenty years, and the arrival time of traffic violation notices is really inconsistent. In cities, after being caught by cameras, you might receive an SMS or app notification in two or three days; in remote areas, mailed letters are slow, often taking ten days to half a month. There are many factors: data processing must first be uploaded to the review system, printed letters take time to mail out, and there are postal delays. Like the last time I was speeding on the highway, the SMS arrived on the fifth day; but a friend in the mountains waited two weeks. I recommend everyone install an app like Traffic Management 12123 to check records promptly. Upon receiving a notice, handle it quickly to avoid late fees. Efficiency varies by city, with Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen being particularly fast. Safe driving is important, and clearing violations promptly is key.
