How many points are deducted for littering on the highway?
1 Answers
Littering on the highway does not result in point deductions, but it can lead to fines. According to the relevant provisions of the Road Traffic Safety Law, motor vehicles that spill or scatter cargo while driving will be fined. If the litter causes accidents involving other vehicles, the responsible party will bear corresponding accident liability. If the litter results in property damage or personal injury, civil compensation liability may also be incurred, and in severe cases, criminal liability may apply. Drive in the designated lane on the highway: Highways have clearly marked lanes for large vehicles, small vehicles, etc. When overtaking, avoid occupying a lane for an extended period and return to your designated lane promptly after completing the maneuver. Additionally, emergency lanes should not be occupied for non-emergency reasons. Avoid speeding on the highway: The dangers of speeding are well-known, whether on local roads or highways, as it can lead to irreversible consequences. Maintain a safe following distance on the highway: Under normal conditions, with dry pavement and good braking, the following distance (in meters) should not be less than the speed (in km/h). For example, at 80 km/h, maintain at least 80 meters; at 100 km/h, maintain at least 100 meters. Always pay attention to roadside distance markers. In rainy, foggy, snowy, or wet road conditions, the following distance should be doubled. Pay attention to traffic signs on the highway: While driving, always observe roadside and overhead signs and markings, and stay appropriately to the right to avoid crossing the right lane divider, ensuring sufficient lateral distance for overtaking vehicles. Avoid fatigued driving on the highway: Fatigued driving is extremely dangerous on highways, as it reduces reaction time and makes it difficult to respond correctly to sudden situations.
