How many points are deducted for changing lanes over a solid line before a red light?
1 Answers
Changing lanes over a solid line before a red light is not allowed, and violators will be deducted 3 points. Intersections with traffic lights are equipped with corresponding electronic monitoring devices that automatically capture violations. The following situations related to crossing solid lines before traffic lights are not penalized: Emergency detours: On a straight-through guiding lane, if the vehicle in front cannot start due to a malfunction, you may cross the solid line to detour without affecting traffic flow. However, after detouring, you must continue driving in the direction indicated by the guiding lane you entered; otherwise, it will be recorded as a violation of not driving in the designated lane. On-site traffic police command: Follow the instructions of on-site traffic officers, prioritizing their commands. Yielding to emergency vehicles: If a special vehicle such as a fire truck or ambulance is approaching behind while performing an emergency task, you must yield by moving to either side. Failure to yield will result in penalties.
