Overtaking by borrowing the lane while queuing for parking will result in a deduction of 2 points, as this is considered a traffic violation. Below is detailed information about vehicle violations: Overview: Vehicle violations refer to acts where motor vehicles contravene the Road Traffic Safety Law and traffic management regulations. Penalties for vehicle violations include warnings, fines (vehicle impoundment), temporary suspension of the driver's license, revocation of the driver's license, cancellation of the driver's license, administrative detention, and criminal liability for acts that constitute crimes. Basis for Penalties: The "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China" stipulates that traffic management departments of public security organs and their traffic police should promptly correct road traffic safety violations. Penalties for road traffic safety violations should be imposed based on facts and the relevant provisions of this law.
As an experienced driver, I've witnessed too many such scenarios on the road. Cutting in line by using the opposite lane during traffic queues is a major issue - getting caught by traffic police or speed cameras results in 3 penalty points, usually accompanied by a 200 yuan fine. This constitutes illegal lane changing, violating traffic marking instructions, which is clearly prohibited by law. I recall when I first started driving, I also made similar foolish mistakes and learned my lesson through point deductions. The danger lies in how easily it can cause rear-end collisions or crashes, especially in congested areas. The safety hazards are significant - at best vehicle damage, at worst injuries and even greater time loss. My advice is: don't chase those few seconds of thrill, maintain patience and wait in line for the safest approach. With traffic cameras everywhere nowadays, violations won't go unnoticed - driving properly actually saves more trouble in the long run.
