How to Handle Traffic Violations in Another City?
2 Answers
Methods for handling traffic violations in another city: 1. Personally visit the local traffic management department to accept the penalty. Since penalty methods vary by region, remember to bring your driver's license and vehicle registration certificate or copies; 2. Ask a friend in the violation city to handle it for you. If you have a friend in the city where the violation occurred, you can directly give them the original or copies of the violation notice, driver's license, vehicle registration certificate, ID card, and other documents for them to handle on your behalf; 3. Use the postal service to pay the fine. After the postal service starts handling traffic violation fines from other cities, car owners can pay fines for out-of-town traffic violations without leaving home, saving time and costs.
Last month, I went on a road trip with friends and got caught speeding by a traffic camera in another city on the highway. After returning home, I received a notification, which initially made me quite nervous. But don’t worry—nowadays, traffic management apps are very convenient. Just download the 12123 app on your phone, log in, and you can see the violation details, including the fine amount and the deadline for handling it. I opened the app and finished paying the fine and deducting points in just a few minutes, saving me the hassle of visiting the local DMV. I recommend checking speed limit reminders on navigation apps before driving in unfamiliar areas to avoid oversights like mine. If traffic violations are left unresolved for too long, late fees may apply or it could affect your annual vehicle inspection, so handling them early is best. Always pay attention to road signs while traveling and drive safely—speeding isn’t worth the risk.
