Is it a violation to change lanes by slightly crossing a solid line?
1 Answers
This behavior constitutes a violation of prohibitory marking instructions and is considered illegal, resulting in penalty points. Changing lanes by crossing a solid line: The most common violation of prohibitory marking instructions is changing lanes by crossing a solid line. Single or double yellow solid lines and white solid lines all fall under prohibitory markings. During driving, whether crossing or going beyond these lines is considered illegal. Relevant regulations: Operating a motor vehicle in violation of prohibitory signs or marking instructions; operating a motor vehicle by not following the rules for overtaking or yielding, or driving in the opposite direction; operating a motor vehicle in violation of regulations for towing a trailer; all are illegal acts. Additional information: When driving on the road, if encountering special vehicles such as fire trucks performing tasks, crossing a solid line to yield to these special vehicles will not be penalized. Even if captured as a violation, the vehicle owner can appeal to the traffic department after receiving the ticket, explaining the situation at the time. The relevant department will review based on the footage of the incident and the special vehicle's route that day. If approved, the penalty can be revoked.
