How many points are deducted for occupying the emergency lane on the highway?
1 Answers
Penalties for occupying the emergency lane on the highway can be divided into three categories: 1. Driving in the emergency lane under non-emergency circumstances: a fine of 200 yuan and 6 points deducted; 2. In case of a breakdown or other unsolvable issues: it is allowed to park the vehicle in the emergency stopping area, turn on the hazard warning lights, place a warning sign 150 meters behind the vehicle, and during nighttime, rain, fog, or other adverse weather conditions, the side marker lights, tail lights, and rear fog lights should also be turned on—no penalty will be imposed; 3. In case of a breakdown or other unsolvable issues: parking the vehicle in the emergency stopping area without immediately turning on the hazard warning lights and moving the faulty vehicle to a place where it does not obstruct traffic; or failing to use the lights and set up a warning sign as required when the vehicle is difficult to move after a breakdown or accident—the driver will be fined 200 yuan.
