How many points are deducted for driving on the highway emergency lane?
1 Answers
Driving on the highway emergency lane results in a deduction of 6 points. The emergency lane is a special lane on highways, only permitted for vehicles such as police cars, fire trucks, and ambulances when performing emergency tasks. When there is no emergency, social vehicles illegally occupying the emergency lane, whether parking or driving, are considered illegal acts. If there are other illegal or rule-breaking behaviors, the penalties will be cumulative. Of course, in case of an emergency, such as a vehicle breakdown, the vehicle can be temporarily parked on the emergency lane. It is necessary to turn on the hazard warning lights and place a triangular warning sign 150 to 200 meters behind the broken-down vehicle. Personnel should evacuate the road and call the highway traffic police assistance number 12122.
