Under what circumstances can the emergency lane be used?
1 Answers
Emergency lanes can be used in urgent situations, such as: 1. Sudden illness of passengers in the vehicle; 2. When the vehicle experiences sudden malfunctions and cannot operate normally; 3. Official vehicles for emergency purposes. Below is an introduction to emergency lanes: Emergency lanes are primarily marked on urban ring roads, expressways, and highways, specifically designated for vehicles handling emergencies such as engineering rescue, firefighting, medical emergencies, or police officers performing urgent official duties. Any private vehicles are prohibited from entering or stopping in the lane for any reason. According to new traffic regulations, if a motor vehicle stops on the emergency lane or shoulder of an urban expressway or highway during traffic congestion without an emergency, a fine will be imposed with 6 penalty points, and the fine must be paid within 15 days.
