What number should I call to contact the car owner for moving a vehicle?

To contact the car owner for moving a vehicle, you can call the parking contact number on the windshield, the insurance company, the traffic management 12123, or the police. Insurance company: Many drivers will "voluntarily" leave their contact information, so the blocked car owner can contact the blocking car owner, and the blockage accident can be resolved. If the parking contact number is unclear (blocked) or the QR code is invalid, you can find the relevant information of the other party's insurance company in the upper right corner of the front windshield. The insurance company has the car owner's phone number and can contact the car owner. You can report a minor accident like a scrape, and the insurance company can quickly contact the car owner. Police handling: The "one-click move" function of the 12123 mobile APP increases the possibility of moving the vehicle.
Methods to contact the car owner for moving the vehicle are quite common for me, especially when the road is blocked in the residential area. The most convenient way is to directly call the 114 service, tell the operator the license plate number, location, and car model, and they can directly connect you to the car owner. If it's in a shopping mall or office building parking lot, it's quicker to go directly to the management office, as they have the car owner's registered phone number in their system. In case of emergencies, such as an ambulance being blocked, calling the police to contact traffic police is faster. For daily parking, it's recommended to place a phone number sign for moving the car on the front windshield, which is convenient for both parties. Nowadays, WeChat mini-programs for moving cars also allow anonymous calls by scanning a QR code, which is very practical.
I have my own go-to methods for contacting car owners to move their vehicles. 114 is a nationwide car-moving service hotline—just provide the license plate number and location, and they'll assist in contacting the owner. Many cities now offer the 12123 traffic management app, which features a one-click car-moving function—simply take a photo and upload it. If your car is blocked in a parking lot, directly approach the security guards; they have registered owner information and can help you reach out. The least advisable option is to tow the car yourself, as any damage incurred would require compensation. If the car displays an insurance company's car-moving contact number, you can try that, but official channels remain the most reliable option.
