How many points are deducted for overtaking in congested sections?

[Elias]

Overtaking in congested sections deducts 2 points. Pre-departure inspection: Before setting off each day, conduct a comprehensive vehicle check, including checking for oil or water leaks, measuring tire pressure to ensure it is appropriate, inspecting the engine oil condition to verify its color is normal and the oil level is correct. Safe driving: Use seat belts correctly; in the event of a severe collision, seat belts provide protection no less effective than airbags. Avoid fatigue driving; take a break every 2 hours. Traffic rule compliance: Especially on highways, do not speed. Speeding not only risks traffic police penalties but, more importantly, is unsafe.

Overtaking in congested areas constitutes a traffic violation under China's Road Traffic Safety Law, typically resulting in a 3-point deduction. Specifically, it violates the no-overtaking rule with a fine of around 200 RMB. I must emphasize that forced overtaking during traffic jams is extremely dangerous, easily causing scratches or rear-end collisions—especially on narrow roads packed with vehicles. When you squeeze forward, others may fail to brake in time, leading to frequent accidents. More critically, developing this habit can trap even experienced drivers, and accumulated points may risk license suspension. Driving demands discipline—wait patiently to protect yourself and others. Why gamble safety to save mere minutes? Safety must always come first.

After years of driving, I've learned this the hard way: forcing your way through traffic by overtaking is nothing but trouble. From a traffic regulation perspective, this behavior counts as illegal lane weaving, which inevitably results in a 3-point deduction and a fine of a few hundred yuan. In reality, think about it—when the road is jam-packed, weaving left and right not only increases the risk of rear-ending the car in front but also invites honks of protest from those behind you, adding unnecessary stress. I've seen many beginners try this, only to get caught every time. Take my advice: keep a steady foot on the gas, follow the flow of traffic at a slow pace. This way, you avoid fines and point deductions, as well as potential accidents. Safe driving starts with a calm mind.

Remember the driving test emphasized: overtaking is prohibited in congested areas, and a violation will cost you 3 points. In real driving, this is very dangerous as dense traffic easily causes rear-end collisions. Develop good habits—patiently queue up during traffic jams and avoid impulsive actions.

Dude, you're asking how many points you'll lose for overtaking in traffic? Haha, that's a trap! According to traffic regulations, it's 3 points and a 200 yuan fine. I've seen a friend do this, got caught by the traffic police, not only lost points but also got stuck in the middle of the road for a long time. Seriously, when the road is jammed, overtaking is pointless and might even cause a scrape, wasting more time. Just relax, listen to some music and wait it out.
