What are the consequences of reversing at a highway entrance?
1 Answers
Reversing at a highway entrance should result in a warning or a fine, along with a deduction of 12 points. According to Article 1, Item 7 of the 'Scoring Standards for Road Traffic Safety Violations,' if a motor vehicle driver reverses, drives in the opposite direction, or makes a U-turn across the central divider on a highway, they will be penalized with 12 demerit points and a fine. Methods to avoid reversing when entering a highway: Plan your route in advance: Before heading out, always plan your route carefully, paying attention to time-based traffic restrictions on highways to avoid last-minute confusion. Do not rely entirely on electronic devices: Any electronic device serves as an aid and may not always provide real-time updates on road conditions. Drivers and escorts must stay alert to the actual road conditions and not depend solely on electronic devices. Don’t panic if you miss an exit: Although highways are closed roads, there is typically an exit every few kilometers. Even if you miss one, you can simply exit at the next one and adjust your route accordingly. Never risk stopping, reversing, or making a U-turn on the main road.
