What is the maximum number of traffic violations a car can be recorded for in one day?

If a vehicle is parked illegally in the same location (without changing its position) throughout the day, it will receive a maximum of two violation penalties. Below are specific details about traffic violations: 1. Definition: Traffic violations (formerly known as traffic offenses, now referred to as traffic infractions) generally refer to actions by motor vehicle drivers, non-motor vehicle drivers, or pedestrians that violate road traffic safety laws, traffic management regulations, or affect traffic conditions. 2. Traffic Violations: Typically, there are two main types of traffic violation fines. The first is an on-the-spot violation ticket. The second is an electronic violation record. On-the-spot violation tickets are usually issued by traffic law enforcement officers who gather evidence at the scene and issue a penalty decision. Fines may also be issued by urban management officers if the vehicle is parked on sidewalks or public areas not designated for traffic, as this violates urban management regulations and falls under their jurisdiction.
That day I witnessed a car owner getting caught for eight consecutive traffic violations in the city, all because he was in a hurry. In the morning, rushing to a meeting, he was caught speeding three times at the same intersection. At noon, while picking up food, he made two illegal U-turns across double yellow lines. In the afternoon, picking up his child from school, he directly occupied the bus lane and was caught three more times. The truth is, traffic cameras don’t care if it’s the same day—they’ll snap any violation. The key issue lies in the driver’s habits. Some always take chances, only to end up with over 3,000 yuan in fines and maxed-out penalty points in a month. It’s best to leave ten minutes earlier—that’s better than anything else. Otherwise, both your wallet and driver’s license will suffer.
As a driver who frequently takes long-distance trips, I can say there's no upper limit to traffic violations. Just last week, a novice friend of mine didn't believe it and was caught four times for consecutive overtaking and lane changes on the highway, plus another penalty for cutting in line at the toll booth. The cameras at various intersections operate independently, and cross-regional violation systems share data with each other. While theoretically, you could be caught countless times in a day, in reality, seven or eight times is already extreme. These records are uploaded to the traffic management platform in real-time, and you'll receive a barrage of text messages if you exceed three violations. The best approach is to use navigation for real-time alerts and avoid high-risk road sections in advance.
