How many days does it take to check the information after running a red light?
1 Answers
After running a red light, the information can generally be checked within about 3 to 7 days, with a maximum of 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 traffic violation; it serves only as a capture alert. Whether it ultimately constitutes a violation still requires confirmation within 3-7 days. If it is indeed a violation, you will receive another SMS notification. For traffic violations captured by surveillance cameras, vehicle owners usually do not receive an immediate violation SMS. There is a time delay, and the duration may vary. This is because 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. It is then compiled and forwarded to the relevant traffic police department staff for verification. Once the violation is confirmed, the system automatically retrieves the vehicle owner's phone number based on the license plate information and sends the violation details via SMS. Only then will the vehicle owner receive the corresponding violation message. After receiving the violation SMS, the vehicle owner must settle all previous violations 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. Traffic violation query methods: Traffic violation queries refer to checking motor vehicle violations of traffic regulations via the internet or query terminals. Methods include website queries, phone queries, SMS queries, mobile app queries, and offline terminal queries. Website query: Search for "vehicle violation query" and enter vehicle information to check. Phone query: Dial 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 license plate issuance location. For on-the-spot violations, such as those directly caught by traffic police, they must be processed at the violation location. SMS query: Open the SMS interface on your phone, enter "WZ [license plate number] [license plate color]" in the message body, and send it to 1062650001. Mobile app query: Open the Traffic Management 12123 app, select "violation query," and clear any unresolved violations. Offline terminal query: Visit the local traffic management hall and use the self-service query machine to enter the license plate number and check recent violation records.
