Where to Pay the Fine for Not Wearing a Seat Belt in the Back Seat?
3 Answers
The fine for not wearing a seat belt in the back seat is not paid at the traffic police station but at the bank specified on the penalty notice. It can also be paid through online banking or Alipay. Here is some additional information: 1. Rear seat belts: As the name suggests, rear seat belts are used by passengers in the back seat. Most people are well aware of the importance of seat belts, but this awareness is often limited to front-seat passengers. In fact, rear-seat passengers also need to fasten their seat belts to protect their lives. 2. Function: Wearing a seat belt prevents injuries from inertia. China's 'Road Traffic Safety Law' explicitly states that 'when a motor vehicle is in motion, the driver and passengers shall use seat belts as required.' Traffic police remind the public that when a car collides or brakes suddenly, seat belts can counteract the tremendous inertia, preventing passengers from being thrown out of their seats or out of the vehicle. For drivers who frequently transport children, it is advisable to have the children sit in the back seat and fasten their seat belts.
Last time I also encountered this situation - got pulled over by traffic police for not wearing seatbelts in the back seat and received a ticket. The officer directly told me there are designated locations printed on the ticket: either go to the nearby traffic management bureau branch where they have counters accepting cash or card payments, or handle it online via apps like scanning the QR code on the ticket with Alipay or WeChat to complete within minutes. Online payment is the most convenient without queuing. By the way, procedures may vary slightly across regions - major cities generally support quick app processing. Remember to pay on time to avoid affecting your credit record. I also learned something: rear seat safety matters equally since sudden braking could easily cause injuries. Always remind passengers to buckle up while driving - not just to avoid fines but more importantly for safety.
As a car enthusiast who frequently modifies vehicles, I've looked into this issue. After being fined for not wearing seat belts in the back seat, there are typically three ways to pay the fine: first, visit the local traffic police squadron where they have dedicated service windows; second, go to a bank counter with the ticket to pay in cash or transfer; third, use mobile apps like Traffic 12123, which is particularly suitable for modern lifestyles. The key is not to delay after receiving the ticket—just follow the instructions on the ticket. I've also checked the relevant regulations, aiming to emphasize safe behavior. The risk is higher in back-seat accidents, and seat belts can reduce injuries by over 70% in accidents. Develop the habit during driving to remind passengers in advance to reduce the chances of such fines.
