The violation code 70030 means: It is an illegal act code formulated according to the implementation measures of the provincial, municipal, and autonomous region's traffic safety laws. According to the relevant provisions of the "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China", the demerit points (deduction): 0 points; fine amount: to be determined; other penalties: to be determined. Traffic violation codes consist of four to five digits, classified according to the general principles in the traffic law. The order from left to right is: the first digit represents the behavior classification code, the second digit represents the demerit points classification code, the third and fourth digits are sequential numbers, and the fifth digit represents the item number under the specific clause. First digit: Behavior classification code, indicating the category in the Road Traffic Law; Second digit: Demerit points classification code, indicating the category of demerit points for traffic violations; Third, fourth, and fifth digits: Sequential code, indicating the order of the violation under the same behavior classification. For example: 13035—"1" indicates motor vehicle behavior, the second digit "3" indicates 3 demerit points, and "035" indicates the fifth item under the third clause in the 3-point deduction category. Behavior classification code violation explanation: 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 (regions, autonomous prefectures, 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 through touch terminals; Log in to the external service website of the public security traffic management bureau of each city, find the vehicle violation query, enter the license plate number and vehicle engine number, and click to query; Call the inquiry hotline (area code + 114) to query; Use the Traffic Management 12123 app (V2.8.1B437 for iOS 15+ or V2.8.1B274 for Android 12+) to query. Common traffic violations can be handled through this traffic management app. After logging in, enter the violation handling process, complete the handling, and make the payment.
I've been driving for over a decade and often get asked about traffic violations. Code 70030 means you've violated a prohibitory traffic sign, commonly by entering a no-entry zone such as time-restricted roads, restricted areas, or roads with vehicle type limitations. I once had a newbie driver make this mistake by accidentally entering a one-way street, resulting in a 200-yuan fine and 2 penalty points. The key is to pay attention to roadside signs and not get distracted by rushing. I recommend dealing with tickets promptly, as delays can affect your credit score and may lead to additional fines. Using navigation apps with route reminders can significantly reduce mistakes. Remember, safe driving not only saves money but also protects everyone.
