Rear passengers on highways are required to fasten seat belts. According to Article 51 of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China, when a motor vehicle is in motion, both the driver and passengers must use seat belts as stipulated. Violations by drivers will result in a 500 yuan fine and 2 penalty points, while passengers not wearing seat belts properly will be fined according to the same regulation without penalty points. The following precautions should be taken on highways: 1. Pay attention to signage when entering highways; 2. When passing through toll booths and entering the ramp, maintain speed below 40 km/h, do not overtake, turn on the turn signal, and observe traffic flow on the main lane until entering the acceleration lane to speed up.
