Where is the QR code for motor vehicles?
2 Answers
The QR code for motor vehicles is located in the lower left corner of the front windshield or in the vehicle's manual. In some cities, it can also be found on the license plate. The QR code contains information such as the issuing authority, unique serial number, license plate number, as well as technical parameters of the vehicle and owner details. The QR code can be scanned using the Traffic Management 12123 app. The QR code on the vehicle registration certificate requires special scanning equipment used by traffic police departments, as ordinary mobile phones cannot recognize the QR code on the license plate to prevent personal information leakage. For ordinary motor vehicles, the QR code is usually found on the accompanying documents, such as the configuration sheet, which typically includes the vehicle's specific configurations. There will be a QR code displaying detailed information about your vehicle. The specific application of QR codes in vehicle management involves the management of vehicle information, safety, inspection, and approval. As a means of transportation, vehicles and their drivers are constantly in dynamic motion across time and space. The functions of the vehicle QR code include: Converting and storing vehicle-related information in the QR code; Automatically recording the vehicle's annual inspection documents; Enabling traffic police to record traffic violation penalties by scanning the QR code; Querying the vehicle's annual inspection status via the QR code; Establishing a vehicle monitoring network to ensure effective, real-time, and automated vehicle management. As a new automatic identification and information carrier technology, QR codes have been widely used in fields such as national defense, customs, taxation, public security, and transportation for automatic information carrying, transmission, and anti-counterfeiting purposes.
I've been into cars for twenty years, and the QR code for motor vehicles is most commonly found on the vehicle license, especially on the information page of the cover. A quick scan instantly reveals details like the vehicle model, registration date, and VIN. This design is incredibly convenient—no need to sift through piles of documents. In my hometown, after the city roads implemented intelligent management, a small QR code label was also placed on the top left corner of the windshield, making it easy for traffic police to quickly verify during duty. I remember once during a road trip, I had a friend scan my vehicle license, and it immediately identified whether it was legitimate, avoiding potential hassles later. If the QR code is lost—for example, due to document wear—you need to rush to the DMV for a replacement to avoid delays in registration or insurance claims. In the digital age, using a phone to scan QR codes can handle all vehicle-related matters safely and efficiently.
