How many days can it take to check the traffic violation information after running a red light?
1 Answers
After running a red light, the illegal photo notification SMS is usually received within 3 to 7 days, and at the latest, around 13 days. However, some cities now offer "instant electronic police capture notifications," where you can receive an SMS notification within 5-10 minutes of being captured. But the notification does not equate to a violation; it serves only as a capture alert. The final determination of whether it is a violation takes 3-7 days. If it is indeed a violation, you will receive another SMS notification. For traffic violations captured by surveillance cameras, vehicle owners generally do not receive the violation SMS immediately. There is a time delay, and the duration may vary. After the electronic camera captures the violation, the relevant violation information needs to be transmitted through a dedicated channel to the traffic police management center, where it is compiled and then verified by the relevant staff of the traffic police department. Once confirmed as a violation, the system automatically retrieves the vehicle owner's phone number based on the license plate information and sends the violation details via SMS to the owner. After receiving the violation SMS, the vehicle owner must settle the violation within one month before the annual vehicle inspection. Generally, if a vehicle owner suspects a violation, they can use 15 days as a benchmark. If no violation SMS is received beyond 15 days, it is likely that no violation was recorded. Methods for traffic violation inquiries: Traffic violation inquiries refer to checking motor vehicle violations of traffic management through online platforms or query terminals. Methods for vehicle violation inquiries include website queries, phone inquiries, SMS inquiries, mobile app inquiries, and offline terminal inquiries. Website inquiry: You can search for vehicle violation inquiries and enter vehicle information to check. Phone inquiry: To inquire about violations, you can call the local 114 (area code + 114) or 12580 for confirmation. Violations can only be processed at the location of the violation or the vehicle's license plate issuance location. For on-site violations, such as those caught directly by a traffic officer, they must be processed at the location of the violation. SMS inquiry: Open the SMS interface on your phone; enter WZ followed by the license plate number and color; send it to 1062650001. Mobile app inquiry: Open the Traffic Management 12123 app, select violation inquiry, and clear any unresolved violations. Offline terminal inquiry: Visit the local traffic management hall and use the self-service query machine to enter the license plate number and check recent violation records.
