How many points are deducted for making a U-turn on a yellow dashed line?
1 Answers
Double yellow dashed lines allow U-turns without point deduction. The following are behaviors that will result in point deductions: 1. Rushing through a red light: Penalty: Fine of 200 yuan and 6 points deducted. Many drivers often see the yellow light flashing when approaching a traffic signal but still accelerate to speed through. This practice is extremely dangerous because the yellow light flashes for a very short time, indicating that the red light is about to turn on, which is a signal for drivers to stop and wait. 2. Ignoring road signs and driving blindly: Penalty: Fine of 200 yuan and 3 points deducted. In urban areas, the most common prohibition signs include one-way signs and no-left-turn signs. Drivers should pay attention to road signs at intersections. 3. Smoking while driving: Penalty: Fine of 50 yuan without point deduction. Smoking while driving is quite hazardous. Firstly, smoke can fill the entire cabin, impairing visibility. Secondly, opening the window can blow smoke into the car, increasing the risk of accidents. 4. Changing lanes arbitrarily or overtaking on double yellow lines: Penalty: Fine of 100 yuan and 3 points deducted. Crossing or driving over lines during travel constitutes a traffic violation. The most common violation is crossing lines due to arbitrary lane changes.
