How to Check Traffic Violations When the Vehicle Owner Is Not Yourself?
2 Answers
Bring your ID card, driver's license, and the vehicle's registration certificate to the traffic violation handling hall or window of the traffic management department for inquiry and processing. Other methods to check violations: Check via the Traffic Management 12123 App: To check violations on the Traffic Management 12123 app, you need to register the non-personally owned vehicle under your driver's license and your 12123 account. Once registered, you can check the violations for the non-personally owned vehicle. Check via the Traffic Management Platform: Search for the Comprehensive Traffic Safety Service Platform online, click on the information query in the main menu, enter the vehicle type, license plate number, and the first six digits of the engine number, then contact the vehicle owner to send the verification code for inquiry.
Actually, checking someone else's vehicle for traffic violations requires some know-how. First, you need to register a non-personal vehicle on the Traffic Management 12123 app. Last time I helped my dad check, I found that by clicking 'Register More Vehicles' on the app's homepage and scanning the owner's QR code for authorization as required, it worked. Once authorized, you can see all the demerit points and fine records for that vehicle, and even click to view specific violation photos. But remember, if you try to check without successful registration, the system will directly pop up 'No Query Permission.' My colleague wasted half an hour last time because the registration wasn't successful. Now you can even check through Alipay's car owner services, but similarly, the vehicle owner must authorize you with their main account.
