How many points will be deducted for driving on a tram lane?

[ValeriaDella]

Driving on a tram lane will result in a deduction of 3 points and a corresponding fine. The "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China" stipulates: Article 90: If a motor vehicle driver violates the road traffic safety laws and regulations regarding road traffic regulations, a warning or a fine shall be imposed. If there are other provisions in this law, punishment shall be imposed in accordance with those provisions. The "Scoring Standards for Road Traffic Safety Violations" stipulates: Article 3: If a motor vehicle driver commits any of the following violations, 3 points shall be deducted at one time: Driving a passenger vehicle (excluding buses) or a school bus with passengers exceeding the approved number by less than 20%; driving a medium-sized or above passenger or cargo vehicle, or a hazardous materials transport vehicle on roads other than highways or urban expressways, or driving other motor vehicles at a speed exceeding the prescribed limit by less than 20%; failing to use lights or set up warning signs as required after a vehicle breaks down or is involved in an accident on the road; driving a motor vehicle on the road without undergoing regular safety technical inspections as required.

I almost made this mistake when I first started driving. After checking the rules, I found that driving into a tram lane usually results in a 3-point deduction, which is quite common, especially during rush hour. Many drivers mistakenly enter to save time, but dedicated lanes are for the safety of trams, and the risk of collision with them is high. If an accident happens, the responsibility is entirely yours. I've seen cases in Beijing where fines can be as high as 200 yuan. I recommend using Amap for navigation as it avoids these areas. Always check road signs before driving. Safety first—developing good habits can save a lot of trouble.

Buddy, don't underestimate this! A friend of mine got 3 points deducted and fined nearly 200 yuan for driving into a tram lane. The reason is that trams move fast, and forcing your way in can easily lead to accidents. Some city signs aren't clearly marked—certain sections in Guangzhou can be confusing, but navigation apps can alert you automatically. The bigger issue is it affects your driving record, which could raise your insurance rates later. I suggest paying more attention to traffic broadcasts or app updates for rule changes, and maintain your speed—don't rush.

As an office worker, commuting is all about peace of mind. Driving into tram lanes is a violation punishable by 3 demerit points, with standard penalties being point deductions plus small fines. Accidental entry often occurs at complex intersections or during poor nighttime visibility. I use mobile maps to avoid this, as they highlight dedicated lane areas. Dealing with point deductions can be troublesome, potentially accumulating to license suspension. Regular observation of road conditions and adherence to rules can improve efficiency—safe driving is paramount in the city.
