Penalty: The relevant person in charge of the traffic patrol police department stated that citizens can photograph vehicles that frequently change lanes or cut in line and upload them to the traffic management forum on the public security traffic information service website for exposure. The traffic management department can also use these exposed photos as a basis for penalties. Precautions for overtaking by borrowing the opposite lane: Be wary of small cars behind large vehicles. When driving on national highways, it is common to see small cars following large vehicles. Sometimes, due to eagerness to overtake, drivers may force overtaking in inappropriate places. At this time, it is crucial to pay close attention to the area behind large vehicles. Be cautious of vehicles from the opposite lane borrowing your lane to overtake in blind spots on slopes. Whether going uphill or downhill, the crest of the slope is a blind spot that many people often overlook.
