What does the violation code 11100 mean?

Violation code 11100 means: Failure to carry the driver's license in the vehicle. According to the relevant provisions of the "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China," the penalty includes: 1 demerit point; a fine; other penalties: none. Traffic violation codes consist of four to five digits, classified according to the general principles in 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 indicates the specific item number. First digit: Behavior classification code, indicating the category in the Road Traffic Law; Second digit: Demerit point classification code, indicating the category of demerit points for the traffic violation; Third, fourth, and fifth digits: Sequential code, indicating the order of the violation within the same behavior classification. For example: 13035—"1" indicates a motor vehicle violation, the second digit "3" indicates 3 demerit points, and "035" indicates the fifth item under the third category of 3-point violations. Explanation of behavior classification codes: Codes starting with "1" indicate motor vehicle violations, e.g., 1003. Codes starting with "2" indicate non-motor vehicle violations, e.g., 2002. Codes starting with "3" indicate pedestrian or passenger violations, e.g., 3030. Codes starting with "4" indicate highway violations, 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 ways to check motor vehicle violations: Visit the office halls of traffic branches in various districts and counties to query via touch-screen terminals; Log in to the external service website of the local Public Security Bureau's Traffic Management Bureau, 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 failing to carry the driver's license, it can be handled through the Traffic Management 12123 app. After logging in, enter the violation processing workflow, complete the process, and make the payment.

I've been driving for over a decade and I'm quite familiar with traffic violation codes. Code 11100 represents violating prohibited marking instructions, which simply means not following the solid or yellow lines on the road. For example, crossing double yellow lines to change lanes at intersections or making illegal overtakes in solid line zones. I've encountered this several times - once I was in a hurry and crossed the line at a highway entrance, got caught on camera, fined 150 yuan with 3 penalty points. Not worth it at all. Since then, I've developed a habit of reminding myself to watch the markings carefully before driving, especially avoiding sudden braking or lane changes in busy areas. This violation might seem minor, but accumulated offenses could affect insurance records or driving points, and more seriously, might cause rear-end collisions or side-swipe accidents. New drivers often make these mistakes due to unfamiliarity with details. I recommend downloading traffic apps to check maps and predict marking changes, planning routes in advance to avoid rushed driving. Safe driving lies in the details - a small oversight could lead to major disasters.
