Why are there no consequences for violations with temporary license plates?

Temporary license plate violations are also subject to points deduction or fines. Below is extended knowledge. Precautions for temporary license plates: 1. Motor vehicles must display their license plates when on the road. If you have just purchased a new car and have not yet obtained the official license plates, you must apply for temporary license plates at the traffic management office and ensure they are properly displayed when driving. 2. Pay attention to the type of temporary license plate when applying. There are four types of temporary license plates: temporary plates for administrative jurisdictions (local temporary plates), temporary plates for cross-administrative jurisdictions (non-local temporary plates), temporary plates for test vehicles (test cars, engineering prototypes, etc.), and temporary plates for special vehicles.
When I bought my first car, friends always said that traffic violations with temporary license plates wouldn't get caught. I believed it, but on the third day of driving, I ran a red light. The camera clearly captured the temporary plate number, and a few days later, the ticket arrived at my doorstep. That's when I realized temporary plates aren't a talisman—they have the vehicle identification number and owner's information, just like regular plates, and are monitored online. The traffic police system can automatically recognize them with electronic eyes, and violation records are synced to the database. Don't take chances; safe driving applies regardless of plate type. Violations still mean points and fines, and while temporary plates are for new car transitions and expire after a set time, the ticket stays with you for life. It's best to follow the rules when driving—don't risk big trouble to save a few minutes.
