The Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region Road Traffic Safety Regulations will come into effect next month with "clear and fixed prices." Pedestrians who cross the road against a red light will be fined 10 yuan.
When crossing the road without following traffic signals, what is the penalty? What are the specific penalties for speeding? A report published in our newspaper on November 28 about the "abolishment of flexible penalty ranges for traffic violations" has caught the attention of many citizens. Numerous citizens and readers have called our hotline to inquire about the details of the penalty clauses in the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region Road Traffic Safety Regulations (hereinafter referred to as the "Regulations"). Our reporter interviewed Fan Xiaohui, Deputy Director of the Legislative Affairs Commission of the Standing Committee of the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region People's Congress, for detailed explanations regarding some issues that concern the public.
Fan Xiaohui stated that according to Article 123 of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People’s Republic of China (hereinafter referred to as the "Traffic Safety Law"), “the standing committees of the people's congresses of provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities directly under the Central Government may, based on the actual conditions of their respective regions, specify the detailed enforcement standards within the range of fines stipulated by this law.”
Fan Xiaohui mentioned that the standard for traffic violation fines is uniformly prescribed by the "Traffic Safety Law," but due to uneven development levels across different regions, the specific fine amounts are only within a certain range. This results in arbitrary factors when imposing fines for traffic violations, leading to issues such as favoritism, relationship-based cases, arbitrary law enforcement, lenient penalties for serious offenses, severe penalties for minor offenses, and inconsistent penalties for similar cases. The implementation standards outlined in these "Regulations" were formulated within the scope defined by the "Traffic Safety Law," taking into account the actual conditions of the Guangxi region, clearly detailing the "fixed prices" for various traffic violations. The reporter noticed that one of the highlights of the "Regulations" is humane law enforcement. Article 53 of the "Regulations" explicitly states: "If traffic police discover any traffic safety violations, they should promptly correct them; if the circumstances are minor, after pointing out the illegal behavior and issuing a verbal warning, the offender shall be released."
In addition to humane provisions, there are also specific penalties. For example, the "Regulations" impose a 10-yuan fine for 11 types of pedestrian traffic violations; a 20-yuan fine for 5 types of passenger traffic violations; and a 20-yuan fine for 22 types of non-motorized vehicle driver traffic violations. For motor vehicle drivers' violations, penalties are categorized into several tiers based on the severity of the offense: 20 yuan, 100 yuan, 150 yuan, or 200 yuan. Heavier penalties are imposed for overloading and driving without a license. Additionally, the "Regulations" supplement the penalty amount for the act of "driving a motor vehicle that does not match the type specified on the driver's license."
Ms. Li, a taxi driver from Hongmuyan Taxi Company, told reporters that she had once argued with a traffic police officer over the amount of a fine because she disagreed with being fined 200 yuan when the "Traffic Safety Law" stipulates a fine of "less than 200 yuan." She believed that 50 yuan or 100 yuan could also be considered "less than 200 yuan," leaving room for negotiation. After hearing the news that the "Regulations" would clearly define fine amounts, leaving absolutely no room for negotiation, Ms. Li said, "Now citizens know exactly how much they should be fined, making it clear and understandable!"
