Will Temporary License Plates Be Captured for Traffic Violations?

New vehicles with temporary license plates do not have embedded electronic chips, so they are generally not captured by electronic traffic violation monitoring systems, mainly because the photos are too blurry, unless on-site police officers conduct inspections. However, high-definition cameras can clearly capture temporary plates. Due to occasional manpower shortages in traffic police departments, some violations may not be promptly addressed, but this does not mean drivers can evade responsibility. Traffic police can also check the chassis and vehicle identification numbers (VIN) on-site for registration, so vehicle owners who park illegally should be cautious. The following situations involving temporary license plates may also result in penalties: 1. Failure to display temporary license plates as required: 12 demerit points and a fine of 200 yuan. 2. Using expired temporary license plates: Typically, a fine of 200 yuan and 12 demerit points will be imposed.

After driving for so many years, I've seen cases where temporary license plates were caught violating traffic rules. The technology of surveillance cameras is truly advanced, with high-definition lenses capable of capturing the plate numbers. Although temporary license plates are made of paper and affixed to the windshield, the numbers are entered into the system, and traffic violations will still be recorded. For example, running a red light or speeding may result in delayed processing once caught by the cameras, but once you switch to a formal license plate, fines and penalty points will accumulate. I suggest not taking chances; safe driving should always come first. Installing the Traffic Management 12123 APP can help you check for violations promptly and avoid future hassles. Never treat a temporary plate as a free pass to drive recklessly; developing good habits protects both yourself and saves you trouble.

When I first got the temporary license plate, I thought traffic cameras couldn't capture violations. But once, in a hurry, I ran a yellow light, and the traffic management app showed that I was photographed. The number was blurry, but the system recognized the plate. The police didn't fine me but gave a warning. A friend was clearly caught speeding at another intersection and was fined 200 yuan. Temporary plates can indeed be photographed, with a low recognition rate but still a risk. Vehicle information is already registered with the traffic authorities, and violation records are kept. It's best to always obey speed limits and traffic signals when driving. After driving, remember to check the app and resolve any issues early, or you might face a pile of fines when the official plate arrives. Safety first, don't slack off.

I know a bit about traffic surveillance. Cameras use AI algorithms to scan license plates. Temporary plates are paper-based, easily moved by wind when affixed to car windows, with distorted numbers making recognition difficult, potentially avoiding fines if the shot is unclear. However, if the angle captures a clear image, the system matches the vehicle owner's information to process the violation. Risks exist, so don't speed or run red lights. Drive safely with seat belts fastened—safety is more important than saving time. Technically, temporary plate violations can be captured, but you need to actively check for violations.
