Does crossing the line count as occupying the emergency lane?
1 Answers
Crossing the line counts as occupying the emergency lane. Purpose of the emergency lane: The emergency lane serves as a crucial passage for handling emergencies. It is designated on both sides of highways, urban expressways, and city ring roads, specifically for vehicles dealing with emergency situations such as engineering rescue, firefighting and rescue, medical aid, or police officers performing urgent official duties. It is a "life passage," and any civilian vehicles are prohibited from entering or staying in the lane for any reason. Penalties for illegally occupying the emergency lane: Drivers who illegally occupy the emergency lane will face fines and penalty points. If they refuse to leave after being advised, they may be forcibly removed and held accountable for obstructing official duties.
