How to Handle Disputes Over Vehicle Violations?
2 Answers
If you have objections to a vehicle violation, you can appeal to the traffic police department within 15 days of the penalty decision being issued, requesting the cancellation of the violation record. If you disagree with the vehicle violation penalty, you can apply for reconsideration with the higher-level traffic police department or file an administrative lawsuit with the court. The following are situations where you can apply to cancel the violation penalty: 1. Inconsistent traffic signals and on-site commands: When traffic signals, signs, or markings are inconsistent with the on-site traffic police commands. 2. Assisting judicial authorities: Assisting judicial authorities in investigating cases or pursuing suspects. 3. Stolen vehicle: Violations that occurred during the period when the vehicle was stolen.
I've been driving for years and have encountered a few traffic tickets that I felt were questionable. Handling them isn't actually difficult: First, after receiving the ticket, carefully check the information, such as whether the time, location, and vehicle model match. If you find any errors, I usually go to the local traffic police station or use an online platform to appeal. Nowadays, many apps make it very convenient—just submit evidence like dashcam videos or photos. Once, I was fined for running a red light, but in reality, I was stopped at the intersection waiting for the green light. I recorded a video and uploaded it, and the fine was revoked. The key is to act quickly—most places require you to appeal within 15 days, so don't procrastinate. Additionally, I recommend developing the habit of recording your driving, such as using a dashcam, so you have sufficient evidence when disputing a ticket. The whole process usually takes about one or two weeks to resolve. Don't worry about the process being complicated—official departments are quite efficient in handling these matters.
