How many points are deducted for occupying the opposite lane?
1 Answers
Occupying the opposite lane by a motor vehicle is considered driving against the traffic flow, which results in a deduction of 3 points and a fine. Driving against the traffic flow refers to the following situations: 1. On roads with solid dividing lines: Motor vehicles entering the opposite lane, where the road dividing lines are double solid lines or single solid lines, are not allowed to cross the lines under any circumstances. 2. On roads with dashed dividing lines: It is permissible to borrow the opposite lane for overtaking when safe, but in the event of an accident, the vehicle borrowing the lane will be deemed to be driving against the traffic flow. 3. On roads marked with one-way signs: Any motor vehicle entering such roads will be considered to be driving against the traffic flow.
