Electronic police capture violations such as illegal U-turns, improper lane changes, occupying bus-only lanes, driving in the wrong direction, running red or yellow lights, and changing lanes over solid lines. Below are detailed descriptions of other monitoring methods for detecting violations: 1. Traffic flow monitoring: Installed on thin poles. Used to record traffic volume on road sections at different times of the day, submitting data to the traffic management bureau to adjust traffic light intervals, not for recording vehicle violations. 2. Speed trap cameras: Installed in indicated locations, relatively easy to spot, but may also be placed in concealed areas on highways, making them hard to identify. If such a camera flashes as you pass by on the highway, it indicates you are speeding. 3. Illegal parking cameras: Commonly seen in small neighborhood roads and high-traffic areas. They can also monitor wrong-way driving and prolonged illegal parking, with an accuracy rate of over 90%. The lens can zoom and automatically adjust the image size, with a visible range of 200 meters. 4. Multiple cameras on a single pole: Typically installed between intersections, most commonly used on main roads with a speed limit of 60 km/h. Some are hidden under bridges.

Having driven for many years, the primary violations caught by electronic traffic enforcement are common traffic offenses such as speeding, running red lights, not wearing seat belts, or using phones while driving. Once, I was caught speeding myself—snagged by a radar speed trap at a highway entrance—resulting in both a fine and penalty points, which was quite a lesson. They also frequently capture violations like driving in bus lanes, illegal parking, or smoking while driving. Electronic traffic cameras are typically installed at intersections, overpasses, or accident-prone areas, equipped with high-definition cameras for 24/7 monitoring, some even capable of detecting conditions inside the vehicle. As an experienced driver, I believe this serves as a reminder to develop disciplined driving habits—slow down, don’t rush, buckle up, and stay focused. Safe driving not only avoids fines but also reduces accident risks, protecting both yourself and others. Regular vehicle checks, like ensuring proper tire pressure and brakes, also make speed control easier.

The working principle of electronic police is quite simple. They mainly use cameras and sensors to capture violations. For example, when speeding, radar speed guns trigger the camera to take photos; when running a red light, the camera captures the moment the wheels cross the line. They also photograph dangerous behaviors like not wearing seat belts or using phones while driving, and can even recognize license plates for automatic recording. This technology feels quite advanced to me, but it's not an enemy—it's designed for safety. As a driving enthusiast, I often remind myself to obey speed limits, especially in school zones or on curves. Vehicle maintenance is also crucial, such as ensuring lights are working properly to see road conditions clearly and avoid being caught in low-light conditions. In short, the violations captured by electronic police are high-risk behaviors, aimed at reducing accidents and making our roads safer. The more we understand the rules and locations, the fewer headaches we'll have.

Safety first. Electronic traffic police specifically target behaviors that cause accidents, such as speeding, running red lights, or driving without seat belts. Capturing speeding aims to prevent severe accidents—high speeds make it hard to stop in time. Capturing red-light runners avoids collisions. Capturing seat belt violations serves as a reminder to protect oneself. I’ve personally witnessed accident scenes with tragic outcomes, so now I always check my seat belt and set my phone to Do Not Disturb before driving. Electronic traffic police act like guardians, deterring drivers from reckless behavior. They mostly operate at intersections or highway entrances, monitoring around the clock. As a driver, developing cautious habits is most effective—control your speed, use cruise control to reduce speeding, and maintain your vehicle’s condition. Keep a steady grip on the wheel to minimize risky overtaking.

Getting caught by electronic police isn't cheap, with fines plus penalty points. It mainly targets speeding, running red lights, occupying lanes, or driving against instructions. Fines range from a couple hundred to over a thousand; maxing out penalty points could mean license suspension. I learned the hard way—once got a 300-yuan fine for speeding and had to retake courses. Electronic monitoring spots change often, so don't gamble. Watching road signs and speed limit boards is key. As a driver, maintaining your vehicle matters—for example, responsive brakes prevent accidental acceleration. Stay focused while driving, avoid rushing yellow lights; these behaviors are easy catches. Following rules saves money, avoids legal trouble, and boosts safety.
