If you drive in the wrong direction on a regular urban one-way road, the penalty is usually 3 points deducted from your license. For highways and urban expressways, driving in the wrong direction results in 12 points deducted and may also lead to the suspension of your driver's license for up to three months. Relevant regulations on wrong-way driving: According to Article 77 of the 'Regulations on Road Traffic Safety of the People's Republic of China,' if a motor vehicle driver is caught driving in the wrong direction, they will be penalized with 3 points deducted and may face a fine or a warning. According to Article 6 of the 'Measures for the Scoring of Traffic Violations by Motor Vehicle Drivers,' if a driver is caught reversing, driving in the wrong direction, or making a U-turn across the central divider on a highway, they will be penalized with 12 points deducted, a fine or warning, and may also face suspension of their driver's license for up to three months. Analysis of wrong-way driving violations: Cameras on one-way roads typically capture instances of wrong-way driving, and any such capture is considered a violation.
