Penalty points for not using vehicle lights as required while driving are as follows: 1. After an accident: If a vehicle obstructs traffic and is difficult to move after an accident on the road, and does not use warning lights as required, a fine of 200 yuan and 3 points will be deducted. 2. When overtaking: If a motor vehicle does not use lights as required when overtaking, a fine of 100 yuan and 1 point will be deducted. 3. Nighttime meeting: If a motor vehicle does not use lights as required when meeting another vehicle at night, a fine of 100 yuan and 1 point will be deducted. 4. Passing through signal-controlled intersections: If a motor vehicle does not use lights as required when passing through a signal-controlled intersection, a fine of 100 yuan and 1 point will be deducted. 5. Changing lanes: If a motor vehicle does not use lights as required when changing lanes, a fine of 100 yuan and 1 point will be deducted.
I haven't been driving for long. When I first got my license, I was particularly afraid of getting penalty points. Improper use of lights, such as randomly using high beams or forgetting to signal, would directly result in 1 point deduction. It doesn't sound like much, but accumulating 12 points means having to retake the driving test. Once when I was driving at night, I forgot to turn off my high beams and nearly caused an accident for an oncoming vehicle. That's when I realized how important lighting rules are. The point deduction system exists for safety reasons, as improper lighting can easily lead to accidents. I recommend that new drivers practice using vehicle lights more often and regularly check if the bulbs are functioning properly. Don't let small oversights lead to big troubles.
