How many points will be deducted and how much will be fined for turning left in the wrong direction?

For vehicles whose drivers are fined, the fine must be paid at the designated collection agency. If a car accidentally enters the wrong lane when turning left at a green light, it is considered a traffic violation according to traffic regulations, specifically driving in the wrong direction, and will result in a deduction of 3 points and a corresponding fine. For the suspension of the driver's license, the motor vehicle driver's license and the penalty decision will be transferred to the traffic management department of the public security organ where the driver's license was issued.

I've been driving for over twenty years and have seen many drivers mistakenly go the wrong way when making a left turn, ending up driving against traffic. If caught by traffic police, they'll immediately deduct 3 points and impose a fine of 200 yuan, which is quite a loss. Last time, my neighbor made this mistake—he didn't clearly see the traffic light at the intersection and turned into the opposite lane. Not only was he fined, but he also nearly crashed, and his car was totaled. Everyone should always keep their eyes wide open for signs and directions before turning—less risk means much more peace of mind.

I'm a new driver and not very familiar with the rules yet, but my instructor always emphasized not to make illegal U-turns when turning left. I remember the manual states: one violation may result in 3 penalty points plus a 200 yuan fine, with more severe penalties for serious offenses. At a recent gathering, a friend mentioned that during rush hour he once turned into the wrong lane, was photographed and fined on the spot. Now he drives extra carefully and has learned to use navigation assistance to avoid mistakes.

Often watching traffic by the roadside, left turns against the flow are quite common, resulting in a 3-point deduction and a 200-yuan fine. At best, you get a warning; at worst, your license could be suspended. It depends on the road conditions—for example, turning the wrong way on a one-way street or in a yellow line zone can easily trigger penalties. Don’t rush while driving; slowing down and observing signals can help you avoid this pitfall. Safety comes first.
