近年来，中国各地政府部门的行为越来越受到监管，最高人民法院呼吁所有法院都应加强对行政部门的监督和管理，促进高质量的发展。
Recently, the Supreme People's Court released seven notable administrative cases to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the revised Administrative Procedure Law. These cases highlight the need for courts to effectively and efficiently resolve disputes between individuals and government bodies.
For example, a driver named Qin from Qijiang district in Chongqing took the local court to court over an unfair traffic penalty imposed on him by the local police department in 2018. The police had not placed a "No Right Turn" sign at the intersection where it would be easily visible, but instead put up a "No Entry" sign about 30 meters into the road on the right side of that road, making it less noticeable.
On June 16, 2018, Qin spotted the sign only after he had made a right turn at the intersection and was fined 200 yuan ($28). His appeal for revoking the traffic penalty was not granted by the local court in 2019, prompting him to appeal to the Fifth Intermediate People's Court of Chongqing.
Surveillance data showed that between June 21, 2017, and May 10, 2019, a total of 5,814 vehicles were caught by traffic police on the same road and fined for the same reason as Qin. In 2020, the intermediate court ruled in his favor, stating that traffic signs in the area in question were not set up in a standardized manner and could easily confuse drivers.
Law professor He Haibo at Tsinghua University in Beijing agreed with the ruling, emphasizing that under the revised Administrative Procedure Law, all courts have the authority to revoke administrative actions that are "clearly inappropriate". According to him, behaviors that cause "significant harm" or "major inconvenience" to the public are considered "clearly inappropriate" under the law.
The top court noted that from May 2015 to June 2025, courts across China concluded 2.83 million first-instance administrative cases. Among new cases in 2024, those arising from land acquisition, along with demolition and relocation, accounted for 26.1 percent, while cases related to administrative penalties made up 14.4 percent.
The top court also noted that the appeal rate and retrial application rate for administrative cases remain high, urging all courts nationwide to play a stronger role in addressing administrative issues while supervising government departments to ensure proper law enforcement.

最近的行政procedure法案引起了很多人对政府行为监管的问题讨论，觉得如果可以把监督权和管理权放到一个更直接的结构上会更加有效。 
我一直觉得，作为一个普通网友，看到这样的法律案例总是让人有兴趣思考。 
如果能够在法庭过程中加入更多的数字化和数据展示，可以更好地了解到整个过程中发生了什么。 
同时，也觉得监管部门的行为越来越受到监督，这也是一种正面变化。 
. For example, Qin's case , the police put up sign 30 meters away from road and driver have no chance to see it 
. This kind of confusion should be prevented by government department and law enforcement system 
.

这些案件也表明了法院的作用在于促进高质量的发展和公民权益保护。我希望更多的人能够参与讨论，并为提高行政部门监管提供更多建议。 
我想说，这种情况下，法院确实应该更加主动地进行监管和监督，尤其是在对行政部门的行为。 
这也让我想到，民众如果能够更加主动地报告政府部门违法行为，可以加大监管的力度。 
前几天在网上看到一篇文章关于一个人的车祸经历， driver 被罚款200元，但是后来被法院判决无期限处罚？
如果能在这种方式下加强监督和管理，我们不仅可以解决交通不便的问题，还可以让更多的人拥有公平的法律保护。 
这个 Traffic Penalty 争案，实际上说的是政府部门对公民的行为监控和惩罚的必要性 
。这也是一种很好的体现了中国的法律体系和执法机制 
。因为如果不是这样，民众就不会信任政府 
。
。但是，我们也不能忽视，政府部门在监控和惩罚公民时，还需要更多的道德考量 
但是，如果没有人注意仔细、没有人关心这是否会对司机造成严重影响，那么这些措施就基本无效了。
那些不符合标准的标牌，是一种浪费。 
我们的法院和检察院要继续强调 supervise 和管理政府部门，这是非常必要的工作。 
isn't this just common sense? 
anyway i really feel for qin, he was just trying to get home and got caught in that mess. 
。
。当然，这并不是说法院在这个问题上不够强大，而是我们政府部门需要更好地理解法律的细节 
案件量也超大了，一般人的 lawyer 可能不太可能解决。
真的希望我们能够看到更多这样的案例，让人们能了解到这些行政行为背后的问题啊？
如果没有法律监督，政府部门可能会继续违法 
。之前在网上看到过很多driver和老人因为路边的标志错误而遭受了巨大不公平，幸好这个案例能给我们提供了一定的教训 
。
最后，我觉得，我们需要更多人来关注这方面的问题，并向法院和政府部门提供反馈！ 
. 最近那7起案件都表明了政府部门行为不当，需要我们的法律体系来纠正
