The violation code 70610 means: Driving a motor vehicle in violation of traffic restriction or prohibition regulations. According to the relevant provisions of the "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China", the penalty is as follows: Demerit points (deduction): 0 points; Fine amount: 100 yuan; Other penalties: None. Traffic violation codes consist of four to five digits, classified according to the principles of the traffic law. The sequence from left to right is as follows: the first digit is the behavior classification code, the second digit is the demerit point classification code, the third and fourth digits are the sequential code, and the fifth digit is the item number under the corresponding clause. First digit: Behavior classification code, indicating the category of the violation under the Road Traffic Law; Second digit: Demerit point classification code, indicating the classification of demerit points for the traffic violation; Third, fourth, and fifth digits: Sequential code, indicating the sequence number of the violation within the same behavior category. For example: 13035—"1" indicates a motor vehicle behavior, the second digit "3" indicates a deduction of 3 points, and the following "035" indicates the fifth item under the third clause in the 3-point deduction category. Behavior classification code violation descriptions: Codes starting with "1" indicate motor vehicle traffic, e.g., 1003; Codes starting with "2" indicate non-motor vehicle traffic, e.g., 2002; Codes starting with "3" indicate pedestrian or passenger traffic, e.g., 3030; Codes starting with "4" indicate highway traffic, e.g., 4002; Codes starting with "5" indicate other regulations, e.g., 5005; Codes starting with "7" indicate implementation rules of provinces, autonomous regions, or municipalities, e.g., 7008; Codes starting with "8" indicate local regulations of cities (prefectures, autonomous prefectures, or leagues), e.g., 8606. There are four common methods to check motor vehicle violations: Visit the office halls of traffic police branches in various districts and counties to query through touch-screen terminals; Log in to the external service websites of the public security traffic management bureaus of various cities, find the vehicle violation query section, enter the license plate number and engine number, and click to query; Call the inquiry hotline (area code + 114); Use the Traffic Management 12123 app (V2.8.1B437 for iOS 15+ or V2.8.1B274 for Android 12+) to query. For the violation of driving a motor vehicle in violation of traffic restriction or prohibition regulations, you can handle it through the Traffic Management 12123 app. After logging in, enter the violation handling process, complete the handling, and make the payment.
As a car enthusiast, I often discuss traffic rules with friends. Violation code 70610 refers to the use of forged or altered motor vehicle documents, such as registration certificates, license plates, or vehicle licenses—essentially anything that proves a vehicle's identity. This is a serious offense. If caught, you'll immediately lose 12 points on your driver's license, face a fine of 2,000 yuan, and in severe cases, may even incur legal liabilities. Why is it so severe? Because fake documents allow wrongdoers to evade responsibility, making it impossible to trace the source in case of an accident and increasing safety hazards on the road. I know a fellow car enthusiast who tried to save money by buying a used car, only to find out the license plate was fake—resulting in hefty fines. So, always obtain documents through official channels and don’t trust roadside ads. Safety comes first when driving, and only genuine, reliable documents ensure peace of mind. Regularly check the validity and anti-counterfeiting marks on your documents, and if in doubt, get them verified at the DMV.
