How Many Days Does It Take to Check for Running a Red Light?
1 Answers
After running a red light, the illegal photo message is usually received within 3 to 7 days, and at the latest, around 13 days. Some cities now offer "instant electronic police capture notifications," where you can receive an SMS notification within 5-10 minutes of being captured. However, the notification does not equate to a traffic violation; it serves only as a capture alert. Whether it is indeed a violation will be confirmed within 3-7 days. If it is confirmed as a violation, you will receive another SMS notification. For traffic violations captured by surveillance cameras, vehicle owners generally do not receive an immediate violation notice. There is a delay, and the duration may vary. After the electronic camera captures the violation, the relevant information must be transmitted through a dedicated channel to the traffic police management center. It is then compiled and forwarded to the relevant traffic police staff for verification. If 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. After receiving the violation notice, the vehicle owner must report to the traffic police department at the location of 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 notice is received within 15 days, it is likely that no violation was recorded. Methods for Checking Traffic Violations: Traffic violation checking refers to the process of checking motor vehicle violations of traffic regulations through online platforms or query terminals. Methods include checking via traffic violation websites, phone calls, SMS, or mobile apps. Website Query: Search for "vehicle violation query" and enter the vehicle information to check. Phone Query: Dial the local 114 (area code + 114) or 12580 to confirm traffic violations. Violations can only be processed at the location of the violation or the vehicle's registration authority. For on-the-spot violations, such as those caught directly by traffic police, processing must be done at the violation location. SMS Query: Open the SMS interface on your phone, enter "WZ [license plate number] [plate color]," and send it to 1062650001. Mobile App Query: Open the Traffic Management 12123 app, select "violation query," and clear any unresolved violations.
