How many points are deducted for driving improperly on the highway at one time?
2 Answers
Driving improperly on the highway results in a deduction of 3 points. Below is additional information: Driving regulations: Driving a motor vehicle on an urban expressway without following the designated lane will result in a penalty of 3 points deducted. Driving a motor vehicle on roads other than highways or urban expressways without following the designated lane will not result in any points deducted. Designated lane driving: Driving a motor vehicle on a highway without following the designated lane refers to the behavior of not driving in the lane that the vehicle should be in while on the highway. Motor vehicles must drive in the designated lanes, for example, vehicles intending to turn right should be in the right-turn lane. For vehicles driving in straight lanes, making illegal left or right turns at intersections is prohibited.
After driving on highways for so many years, I've seen too many people lose points for breaking the rules just once. The exact number of points deducted depends on the situation: changing lanes without signaling usually results in a 3-point deduction; driving recklessly on the emergency lane or speeding may cost you 6 points; the most severe offenses, like driving in the wrong direction or reversing, will directly deduct 12 points and could lead to license suspension or fines of several thousand yuan. High speeds on highways mean higher risks, and even a slight distraction can lead to major accidents. I advise beginners to always pay attention to traffic signs—the new regulations clearly outline these penalties to reduce accidents. Regularly check your tires and brakes; don't lose big for small gains. Remember, safety comes first, and point deductions are just warnings—don't wait for an accident to regret it. Develop good habits, review the rules before each highway drive, and don't let rushing disrupt your discipline.
