Is there a late fee for illegal parking tickets?
1 Answers
There is no late fee for illegal parking tickets, but there is for traffic tickets. There are two scenarios for late fees on unpaid traffic violations: 1. Violations captured by electronic surveillance: These do not incur late fees and can be handled during the annual vehicle inspection. 2. Violations with on-site tickets issued by traffic police: Fines must be paid within 15 days, and a late fee of 3% per day will be charged starting from the 16th day, with the total late fee not exceeding the original fine amount. Below are the consequences of not handling traffic violations: 1. Late fees: On-site tickets not paid within 15 days will incur late fees. 2. License and vehicle seizure: If more than three violations remain unpaid, the traffic police may seize the driver's license, and in severe cases, the vehicle. 3. Difficulty in license processing: Unpaid on-site tickets will prevent the driver from renewing, replacing, or transferring their license. 4. No insurance claims: Accidents or vehicle damage will not be covered by the vehicle insurance company. 5. Failed annual vehicle inspection.
