How many points are deducted for crossing a yellow solid line?

[ReeseFitz]

Crossing a yellow line in traffic generally results in a fine of 200 yuan and a deduction of 3 points. Crossing a yellow line is a violation of traffic rules. Yellow lines are divided into single yellow lines and double yellow lines, neither of which allows vehicles to cross or straddle the line. There are two scenarios for crossing a yellow line: 1. If the violation is recorded by traffic police or cameras, the traffic penalty is usually a fine of 100 yuan and a deduction of 3 points. 2. There is also a yellow dashed line, which allows vehicles to cross the line or make a U-turn, provided it does not affect vehicles in the opposite lane. Additional information: The formal name for this violation is "violation of prohibited marking instructions." Although the 2013 revised traffic regulations clearly stipulate a "3-point deduction" for such violations, enforcement varies across different regions in China. Some areas impose "fines plus point deductions," while others only issue fines without deducting points. Additionally, the fine amounts differ by region, ranging from a minimum of 100 yuan to a maximum of 200 yuan.
