How to Handle Illegal Parking Now?
2 Answers
Illegal parking is divided into two types of penalties: on-site penalties and off-site penalties. Here are the specific details: On-site illegal parking penalties: For violations of road traffic safety laws regarding motor vehicle parking, if the driver is present, the traffic police can point out the violation and issue a verbal warning, instructing the driver to leave immediately. Generally, as long as the driver leaves quickly, there will be no fine. If the driver refuses to leave and the parked vehicle obstructs the passage of other vehicles or pedestrians, the traffic police will impose a fine. Off-site illegal parking penalties: If the driver is not present, in addition to issuing a fine and a ticket, if the parked vehicle obstructs the passage of other vehicles or pedestrians, the traffic police department has the authority to tow the vehicle to a location that does not obstruct traffic or to a place designated by the traffic management department of the public security authority. Handling illegal parking in a different location: Go to the local traffic management department to accept the penalty. Since penalty methods vary by location, please remember to bring your driver's license and vehicle registration or copies. You can also use postal services to pay the fine for traffic violations. After the introduction of postal services for paying traffic violation fines in different locations, vehicle owners can settle their fines without leaving home, saving time and costs.
Last time I got fined for illegal parking, 200 yuan wasn't too much, but it took time to deal with. After receiving the ticket, I immediately went to the local traffic management bureau's window to pay the fine, just needed to bring my ID card and driver's license. Some places even allow online payment through the 12123 Traffic Management APP, which is much more convenient. If not handled promptly, late fees might be added or the car could be towed, which is even more troublesome. Now I've learned my lesson—before parking, I always look around for no-parking signs or yellow lines. If fined, don't panic, just pay the fine honestly; delaying will only make the loss greater. Usually, make it a habit to park in regular parking lots or roadside parking spaces to avoid a lot of trouble, and it's more worry-free and cost-effective.
