신호위반 과태료 Signal violation fines

It is absolutely forbidden to violate a signal while driving a car, but there are cases in which a signal violation occurs without knowing the standard of the signal violation. If you go through a yellow light and turn to a red light, it is a signal violation, and opinions are divided. So today, along with the signal violation standards, let’s take some time to find out how much the signal violation fine will be if there is a signal violation.

Unmanned Enforcement Signal Violation Criteria
One of the most common cases of signal violations is when an unmanned enforcement device is caught and a fine for negligence is issued. In the case of an unmanned interceptor, one is installed outside the stop line along with the vicinity of the stop line. At this time, if the vehicle passes over the unmanned police officer, it is installed as a system that recognizes and tracks the vehicle. At this time, the standard of the Unmanned Enforcement Signal Committee is that even if it passes the yellow light, there will be no enforcement. This is because Article 6 (2) of the Road Traffic Act requires that when a yellow light is turned on, stop when there is a stop line or crosswalk, and when even a part of a vehicle enters the intersection, proceed out of the intersection quickly. 신호위반 과태료

However, if a red light is on and you pass an intersection, the sensor does not work immediately, but measures the time slightly differently depending on the size of the intersection. In some regions, the sensor may be activated after 0.5 seconds, and there will be some sensors that are activated before that. At this time, if you cross the signal violation reference line at the center of the intersection, you will have to pay a fine for violating the signal. 좋은뉴스

Traffic Police Enforcement Signal Violation Criteria
Even if there is no signal violation during unmanned enforcement, it may be cracked down by the traffic police. Traffic police may impose fines and demerit points for violating traffic lights, even when driving in yellow lights. The standard of the traffic police is that if it is judged that braking is difficult, you can pass the yellow light, but it may be different for each person because the standard is vague.

Summary of Signal Violation Criteria
Unmanned enforcement signal violation standards can pass even at a yellow light, but you must pass quickly. Also, even if the red light is on, as long as you have not crossed the signal violation baseline, you will not be subject to signal violation enforcement. (Even if you step on the stop line on a red light, you will not be caught in violation of the unmanned enforcement signal.)
According to the traffic police signal violation standards, even if you drive on a yellow light, you may be caught in a signal violation crackdown. Each person’s point of view may be slightly different, so even if it’s vague, you may be caught in the signal violation criteria.

Signal violation fines and fines
Fines and fines are different things. If you are caught unattended and do not know who the driver is, you will be fined, and if you are caught by the traffic police or enforcement personnel, you will be charged with a fine along with demerit points. Also, please note that the fine and fine will be doubled if the traffic signal is violated in a children’s sanctuary rather than on a public road.

Signal violation fines Signal violation fines and 15 demerit points
Car 70,000 won 60,000 won
Van 80,000 won 70,000 won
Two-wheeled vehicle 50,000 won 40,000 won

How to check signal violations
You may not know whether you have violated a signal or not. In this case, you can check the traffic violation by entering the Police Department Traffic Civil Service 24 (https://www.efine.go.kr/main/main.do). If you go directly to the site, click on the recent unattended enforcement history and follow the steps in order to see whether you have violated the signal or not. You can check after 3~4 days from the enforcement standard, so please note that it does not come out immediately if you violated the signal on the same day.
