What is traffic violation 1344a?

[McAlejandro]

Violation code 1344A refers to motor vehicles violating prohibition sign instructions. Traffic violation codes are encoding regulations established by the Ministry of Public Security for traffic violations committed by motor vehicles and pedestrians. By querying the new traffic violation codes, specific violations can be quickly identified, thereby speeding up the penalty process for traffic violations. Composition of traffic violation codes: Traffic violation codes consist of four digits, classified according to the principles in traffic laws. The sequence from left to right is: one-digit behavior classification code, one-digit penalty point classification code, and two-digit sequential code. The first digit represents the behavior classification code under the Road Traffic Safety Law; the second digit represents the penalty point classification code for traffic violations; the third and fourth digits are sequential codes indicating the order of violations within the same behavior category. Classification of traffic violation codes: The original traffic violation code table by the Ministry of Public Security includes 337 types of violations, comprising 175 for motor vehicles, 55 for non-motor vehicles, 30 for pedestrians and passengers, 28 for highways, and 49 under other regulations.

Last time I was driving, I accidentally ran a red light and later found out it was traffic violation code 1344a after getting fined. Simply put, 1344a refers to driving a motor vehicle in violation of prohibition sign instructions, such as making a left turn where it's prohibited or parking in a no-parking zone, and you'll get caught if you insist on doing so. In my case, I didn't notice the red light at the intersection, was caught by the camera, fined 200 yuan, and had 3 points deducted from my driver's license. This violation is quite common, especially at urban intersections or school zones, where it's easy to make a mistake if you don't clearly see the signs. The key is to pay more attention to road signs and follow the rules, otherwise your insurance might go up next time. I think if everyone drives a bit slower, pays more attention to the signs, and doesn't rush like I did, they can avoid such fines and troubles.

From the perspective of traffic regulations, violation code 1344a refers to motor vehicle drivers failing to comply with prohibitory signs, such as making a turn where straight-only is enforced or entering restricted zones. I've seen this happen a lot, mainly because drivers overlook conspicuous intersection signs, leading to being caught on camera or stopped on the spot. Typically, the fine ranges from 200 to 500 yuan with 3-6 penalty points, and in severe cases, the driver's license may even be revoked. My advice is to develop the habit of checking signs in advance while driving, slow down at intersections, and avoid blindly following traffic flow. It's also helpful to familiarize yourself with local traffic rules and consider installing navigation with alert features. Preventing such issues ultimately comes down to attentiveness and rule compliance – safe travel should always be the priority.

My buddy recently made an illegal U-turn on a commercial street and got fined for violation code 1344a, which was pretty unlucky. Essentially, he violated a no-U-turn sign – the sign clearly prohibited it, but he still went ahead. He was fined 150 yuan and got 3 penalty points, which also affected his insurance renewal. Young drivers sometimes act too impulsively, prioritizing convenience over rules. I’ve noticed this kind of violation often happens in busy downtown areas or intersections—miss the sign, and you’re caught. Next time, we should remind ourselves to wait a few seconds, check the signs properly before moving, or else accumulating too many points might even require retaking the test. A simple adjustment in habits can save both hassle and money.

Having driven for over a decade, I once encountered the 1344a violation. That time, I parked at the neighborhood entrance without noticing the no-parking sign and got fined. 1344a refers to acts of violating prohibition sign instructions, including running red lights and entering restricted zones. The lesson is that although these signs are prominent, lazy driving habits can easily lead to oversight. A fine of a few hundred yuan and penalty points just aren't worth it. I recommend both new and experienced drivers periodically review traffic rules, slow down at intersections to check signs carefully, and especially confirm before turning. Developing good habits helps avoid violations, ensuring safety and saving money.
