Records are always kept. Electric vehicles receive penalty warnings for violating traffic laws. The specific details are as follows: Definition of non-motor vehicles: Non-motor vehicles refer to road-going vehicles propelled by human or animal power, as well as vehicles with power-driven devices but designed with maximum speed, unladen mass, and dimensions that comply with relevant national standards, such as disabled motorized wheelchairs and electric bicycles. According to the "General Technical Requirements for Electric Bicycles (GB17761-1999)" issued by the National Bureau of Quality and Technical Supervision, electric bicycles are defined as special bicycles with auxiliary battery power, two wheels, and the capability of human pedaling, electric propulsion, or electric-assist functions. Based on the above national standards, "maximum speed," "braking performance," and "frame/fork assembly strength" are mandatory requirements, with the maximum speed not exceeding 20 km/h.

I usually ride shared bikes to work, and sometimes wonder if traffic violations are recorded. From what I understand, non-motor vehicle violations can indeed be recorded, especially in cities with extensive electronic surveillance. For example, running a red light or riding against traffic, if caught on camera, can result in a ticket from the police, which is recorded in the traffic system. These records don’t affect driving license points like they do for cars, but they can be looked up online. Repeated violations may lead to increased fines and could even impact personal credit, particularly when applying for loans or visas. I think this is good because it encourages everyone to follow the rules. There are also many accidents involving non-motor vehicles, so maintaining records helps clarify responsibility. Wearing a helmet, obeying traffic signals, and avoiding tickets are the most practical measures. It’s also helpful to regularly review traffic rules—shared bike apps often provide reminders—and to always maintain safety awareness.

Having driven for over a decade, I've also paid attention to penalties for non-motorized vehicles. Traffic violations by cars are common, while similar offenses by non-motorized vehicles are less strictly enforced. Fine records are uploaded to the system and may be retained for several years. However, the process is simpler than for cars, without point deductions or vehicle inspection implications. I've noticed many e-bike riders fined for jaywalking, with accumulated warnings after being recorded. This actually protects everyone, especially in poor lighting at night, as following rules reduces collision risks. Safety comes first, and children should be taught to ride bikes properly. With the popularity of shared bikes, management has become more digitalized, making it convenient to check violation records via mobile phones.

I use an electric bicycle for commuting and often discuss penalty records. In most cases, traffic violations leave a record, especially when caught by cameras. Once the fine is paid, the record remains in the database—it can be checked but isn’t considered a serious stain. The key lies in prevention: avoid carrying passengers or overloading, wear a helmet properly, and use dedicated lanes. Technological advancements have made records more precise, with electric bike identification numbers similar to license plates. Young people often ignore the rules, leading to rear-end collisions. I’ve found that paying attention to daily riding habits can significantly reduce the chances of fines.
