Illegal parking for five minutes will trigger electronic monitoring. 'Electronic eyes,' also known as 'electronic police,' are the colloquial term for the 'Intelligent Traffic Violation Monitoring and Management System.' Developed successfully in Shenzhen in 1997, they have been gradually promoted for use. Electronic eyes utilize various technologies such as vehicle detection, photoelectric imaging, automatic control, network communication, and computers to monitor violations like running red lights, driving in the wrong direction, speeding, crossing lines, and illegal parking around the clock. They capture images and information of vehicle violations and process them afterward based on the violation data. The working procedure of electronic eyes for capturing illegal parking is as follows: When a vehicle enters a no-parking zone, the electronic police automatically take a photo. If the vehicle leaves within 5 minutes, this photo is automatically deleted. If the vehicle remains parked illegally for more than 5 minutes, the electronic police take a second photo and upload it to the system simultaneously. The vehicle will then be penalized for illegal parking, but no points will be deducted. Only when both photos are uploaded will the case be transmitted to the penalty system. According to the 'Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China,' illegal parking sections in China generally include areas with no-parking signs or markings, such as: In sections with no-parking signs or markings, sections with isolation facilities between motor vehicle lanes and non-motor vehicle lanes or sidewalks, crosswalks, and construction zones, parking is prohibited. Within 30 meters in front of bus stops, emergency stations, gas stations, fire hydrants, or fire stations (excluding the use of these facilities), parking is prohibited.
