Will points be deducted for illegal parking in urban areas?
1 Answers
Illegal parking results in a fine but no points deduction. The penalties for illegal parking are as follows: 1. Article 89: Pedestrians, passengers, and non-motor vehicle drivers who violate road traffic safety laws and regulations regarding road passage shall be given a warning or fined. Non-motor vehicle drivers who refuse to accept the fine may have their non-motor vehicles impounded. 2. Article 93: For violations of road traffic safety laws and regulations regarding motor vehicle parking or temporary stopping, the illegal act may be pointed out, and an oral warning may be issued, ordering the driver to leave immediately. More relevant information is as follows: 1. On-site illegal parking penalty: If a motor vehicle violates road traffic safety laws regarding parking and the driver is present, the traffic police may point out the illegal act, issue an oral warning, and order the driver to leave immediately. Generally, as long as the driver leaves quickly, there will be no fine. If the driver refuses to leave and the parked vehicle obstructs the passage of other vehicles or pedestrians, the traffic police will impose a fine. 2. Off-site illegal parking penalty: If the driver is not present, in addition to issuing a fine ticket, if the parked vehicle obstructs the passage of other vehicles or pedestrians, the traffic police department has the authority to tow the motor vehicle to a location that does not obstruct traffic or to a location designated by the traffic management department of the public security organ.
