It will be captured. According to Article 10 of the Road Traffic Safety Law, drivers who violate traffic signals will be given a warning or fined 200 yuan, with 6 demerit points deducted. Temporary license plates are paper permits allowing vehicles to drive temporarily on roads. Traffic violation penalties are unrelated to temporary or permanent license plates and are primarily imposed for illegal driving behavior. To determine a red-light violation, at least three pieces of photographic evidence are required: 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 continued to move forward when the red light is on. Article 26 of the Road Traffic Safety Law: Traffic signals consist of red, green, and yellow lights. A red light indicates prohibition of passage, a green light indicates permission to pass, and a yellow light serves as a warning. Article 44: Motor vehicles passing through intersections must comply with traffic signals, signs, markings, or the directions of traffic police. Ways to avoid running a red light: When there is an arrow signal, follow the arrow light; otherwise, follow the circular light. 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 you are close and moving fast, you should proceed, as braking might not stop you in time to avoid crossing the stop line; if you are far away, moving slowly, 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.
