What are the penalties for changing lanes over a solid line?

The "Road Traffic Safety Violation Scoring Standards" stipulate: Article 3: If a motor vehicle driver commits any of the following violations, 3 points will be deducted. Point 8: Driving a motor vehicle in violation of prohibition signs or prohibited line markings. Main manifestations of crossing solid lines: Making a U-turn by crossing single or double yellow solid lines, illegally changing lanes by crossing white solid lines, making a U-turn in a no-U-turn section, or turning left in a no-left-turn section. Among these, no-U-turn and no-left-turn signs are marked as ground lines. Main causes of such traffic violations: When approaching an intersection, encountering unexpected situations without taking proper queuing measures, instead choosing to cross lines and merge to bypass; when there are many vehicles at an intersection, drivers choose to "cut in line" by crossing solid lines, especially during peak traffic hours; unfamiliarity with road conditions, failing to observe road markings in time when approaching an intersection, and accidentally crossing prohibited lines; knowingly violating intersection rules, still attempting to make a U-turn or pass illegally, such as going straight from a right-turn lane.
