Legal basis: Provisions on Procedures for Handling Illegal Acts in Road Traffic Safety Article 42 If the traffic police think that the illegal acts found on the spot are minor and have not affected road traffic safety, they shall verbally inform them of the basic facts and basis of the illegal acts, give a verbal warning to the offenders, and release them after correcting the illegal acts. The traffic administrative departments of public security organs of all provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government may determine the specific scope and implementation measures for applying verbal warnings according to actual conditions.
