How many points are deducted for driving in the wrong lane and going against traffic at an intersection?
1 Answers
For the illegal act of driving against traffic, 3 points are deducted for driving against traffic on urban roads, and 12 points are deducted for driving against traffic on highways. There is no penalty of deducting 6 points for driving against traffic. If a driver is deducted 6 points for driving against traffic, it is likely that the driver committed two illegal acts, such as making a U-turn from a side road to the main road and driving against traffic, in which case these two illegal acts result in a deduction of 6 points. Below is relevant information according to the "Road Traffic Safety Law": Article 90: If a motor vehicle driver violates the road traffic safety laws and regulations regarding road traffic rules, a warning or a fine shall be imposed. If this Law provides otherwise, the penalty shall be imposed in accordance with the relevant provisions. Avoid driving in the wrong lane: Slow down before entering an intersection, observe the nearby signs or markings, and clearly understand the direction of each lane at the upcoming intersection in advance. If using a navigation system, pay attention to the navigation instructions when approaching the intersection.
