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