1 Answers
Under non-emergency circumstances, non-commercial vehicles occupying the emergency lane on the highway will be fined 200 yuan and have 6 points deducted; commercial vehicles (such as trucks, hazardous material transport vehicles, etc.) illegally occupying the emergency lane will be fined 200 yuan, have 12 points deducted, and their driver's license will be downgraded. Some provinces impose a maximum fine of 500 yuan. Nature of the emergency lane: The emergency lane on the highway refers to the part of the road adjacent to the right-hand lane, including the hard shoulder, with a width of more than 3 meters and an effective length of 30 meters or more, which can accommodate the parking needs of motor vehicles. In emergencies, vehicles may drive or park in the emergency lane. Relevant regulations: Article 82 of the "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law" stipulates that motor vehicles driving on the highway must not engage in the following behaviors: reversing, driving in the opposite direction, making U-turns by crossing the central divider, or stopping in the lane; overtaking on ramps, acceleration lanes, or deceleration lanes; riding or straddling the lane dividing line or driving on the shoulder; driving or parking in the emergency lane under non-emergency circumstances; test driving or learning to drive a motor vehicle.
