How Many Days Does It Take to Check for Car Speeding Violations?
2 Answers
According to traffic laws, after a motor vehicle commits a violation, it generally takes 3-7 days to check online (including the 12123 traffic management platform) or receive an SMS notification, with the latest not exceeding 13 working days. You can log in to the traffic bureau website where the vehicle is registered to check, or search online for vehicle violations and the 12123 website to enter the query system. Search by region, usually requiring the input of the license plate number and vehicle identification number (generally the last 4 digits of the chassis number or the last 6 digits of the engine number). According to Article 19 of the "Procedural Regulations for Handling Road Traffic Safety Violations", within ten days from the date the traffic technical monitoring equipment collects the violation records, the traffic management department of the public security authority at the place where the violation occurred shall review the recorded content. After verification, it will be entered into the road traffic violation information management system as evidence of the violation. Article 20 states that within three days after the violation information recorded by the traffic technical monitoring equipment is entered into the road traffic violation information management system, the traffic management department of the public security authority shall provide the public with query access and may notify the owner or manager of the motor vehicle by mail, SMS, email, etc.
As a seasoned driver with years of experience, I've had a few embarrassing encounters with speed cameras. Generally speaking, the query time isn't fixed - sometimes you can find the record on the app in just a day or two, but the processing notification might take about a week, especially during holidays or in remote areas where the system is slower. I recommend downloading a local traffic management app to check surveillance data in real time, such as the 12123 platform, so you can detect and handle issues early. Remember, speeding fines are minor compared to what could happen if an accident occurs - you'd regret it too late. Develop good habits by frequently checking your dashboard speed and keeping it below the limit - that's the reliable approach. Delaying too long on such matters might lead to additional penalty points, so checking early gives you much more peace of mind.
