How many points are deducted for making a U-turn over double solid lines?

[StephenAnn]

Making a U-turn over double solid lines is a traffic violation. According to Article 26 of the Road Traffic Safety Law, violators will be fined 200 yuan and receive 3 demerit points. Generally, on long roads, white solid lines are usually present in the middle section or before intersections. If the lines are yellow dashed or white dashed, U-turns are permitted. However, U-turns are strictly prohibited over any solid lines. Situations where U-turns are allowed: Intersections with U-turn signs: If there is a clear U-turn sign at an intersection, U-turns are permitted. If there is a U-turn traffic light, follow its instructions. In the absence of a traffic light, make the U-turn based on the specific situation without obstructing other vehicles or pedestrians. Intersections without explicit no-U-turn or no-left-turn signs: U-turns are allowed if there are no signs explicitly prohibiting them. "No explicit prohibition" means the absence of "no U-turn" or "no left-turn" signs and no solid lines in the middle of the road. Yellow grid lines also permit U-turns: Yellow grid lines are no-parking zones marked at intersections prone to congestion due to temporary parking, important facility entrances, and other necessary locations. Stopping on these lines (including waiting for traffic lights) is a violation. Although parking is prohibited in yellow grid zones, U-turns are allowed as long as there are no central barriers. Yellow grid lines without barriers are equivalent to "U-turn permitted." Intersections with U-turn traffic lights: This is straightforward—if there is a U-turn traffic light, proceed only when it is green. Simultaneous no-left-turn and U-turn-permitted signs: U-turns are allowed even if left turns are prohibited. Note that "no U-turn" is not the same as "no left-turn." Precautions when making U-turns at intersections: Observe road markings. U-turns are prohibited over solid lines under any circumstances. Continue driving to find a suitable spot. If there is a "no left-turn" sign, U-turns are also prohibited at that intersection, even if there is no explicit "no U-turn" sign, as U-turns require a left-turn maneuver. U-turns must be made from the innermost left-turn lane. U-turns are not allowed from the second left-turn lane. Always yield to oncoming traffic when making a U-turn. Failure to do so may result in full liability for any accidents. Near intersection stop lines, lanes often have guiding arrows. Not all leftmost lanes have left-turn arrows. If a lane has a straight arrow, U-turns are prohibited even without explicit "no U-turn" signs. U-turns are not allowed on crosswalks and are considered violations.
