What to Do When the Vehicle in Front Blocks Your View and You Run a Red Light?
1 Answers
In general, if a motor vehicle is photographed running a red light while following another vehicle, it is usually because the driver rushed through the intersection when the signal was changing. This behavior can only be penalized as running a red light. However, if it is confirmed that the signal light was obstructed by the vehicle in front, the driver can apply for a reconsideration after being penalized. Drivers should maintain sufficient visibility to see the traffic signals ahead and ensure a safe braking distance. Penalty Points for Running a Red Light: According to Article 2, Section 1, Clause 2 of the "Scoring Standards for Road Traffic Violations," driving a motor vehicle in violation of traffic signal lights results in a deduction of 6 points. Article 3, Section 1, Clause 8 states that driving a motor vehicle in violation of prohibitory signs or markings results in a deduction of 3 points. How to Check for Red Light Violations: You can check for red light violations through the "Traffic Management 12123" app. After opening the app, log in with your ID card, find the option for violation handling, and click on it. In the violation handling section, you can see the current status of your vehicle. If there are any violations, the specific details will be displayed. Visit the office halls of the traffic police departments in various districts and counties to check using the touch query terminals. Log in to the external service websites of the public security traffic management bureaus of various cities: find the vehicle violation query section, enter your license plate number and engine number, and click to query.
