Will a Vehicle with Temporary License Plates Be Caught by Surveillance for Running a Red Light?

[LaRuth]

Yes, it will be captured. According to Article 90 of the Road Traffic Safety Law, motor vehicles that violate traffic signal lights will be given a warning or fined 200 yuan, along with a deduction of 6 points. Temporary license plates are paper-based vehicle plate numbers that allow motor vehicles to temporarily drive on the road. Traffic violation penalties are not related to temporary or formal license plates but are primarily imposed for illegal driving behavior. Determining a red-light violation requires at least three pieces of photographic evidence: the vehicle has not left the stop line when the red light is on; the vehicle has passed the intersection when the red light is on; the vehicle has crossed the line and continues to move forward when the red light is on. Article 26 of the Road Traffic Safety Law: Traffic signal lights consist of red, green, and yellow lights. The red light indicates prohibition of passage, the green light indicates permission to pass, and the yellow light indicates a warning. Article 44: Motor vehicles passing through intersections shall proceed according to traffic signal lights, traffic signs, traffic markings, or the direction of traffic police. Ways to avoid running a red light: When there are arrow indicator lights, follow the arrow lights; otherwise, follow the circular lights; When the red light is on, the front of the vehicle must not cross the stop line; When the yellow light is on, the front of the vehicle must not cross the stop line; When the green light just flashes, if the distance is close and the speed is fast, you should proceed, as braking may not stop the vehicle in time to avoid crossing the stop line; if the distance is far, the speed is slow, or the intersection is congested, you should stop; When driving in the city, develop the habit of looking for traffic lights whenever you see a crosswalk or stop line at an intersection.
