How Many Points Are Deducted and What Is the Fine for Driving Against Traffic on a Service Road?
1 Answers
Driving against traffic on a service road results in a deduction of 3 points and a fine. Legal basis: 1. According to the "Point Deduction Standards for Road Traffic Safety Violations," motor vehicle drivers who commit any of the following violations will have 3 points deducted at once: driving a motor vehicle without following overtaking or yielding rules, or driving against traffic; 2. The "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China" stipulates that motor vehicle drivers who violate road traffic safety laws or regulations regarding road usage shall be fined. Below are several situations of driving against traffic: 1. Roads with solid lines: On roads with solid dividing lines (double solid lines or single solid lines), vehicles must not cross the lines under any circumstances. If a motor vehicle enters the opposite lane, it will be considered as driving against traffic. 2. Roads with dashed lines: On roads with dashed dividing lines, vehicles may borrow the opposite lane to overtake if it is safe to do so. However, if an accident occurs, the vehicle borrowing the lane will be deemed as driving against traffic. 3. One-way signs: On roads marked with one-way signs, any motor vehicle entering will be considered as driving against traffic.
