What are the penalties for driving on the highway with a license less than one year old?
1 Answers
If a driver operates a vehicle on the highway with a license that has been held for less than one year, they will be subject to mandatory education, required to exit the highway at the nearest exit, and fined between 20 and 200 yuan. Additionally, the vehicle information and driver's license will be recorded by the police, but no points will be deducted. However, if there is a driver with a license held for more than three years in the passenger seat providing guidance, the new driver is permitted to drive on the highway during the probationary period. Below are some precautions for driving on the highway: 1. Observe traffic rules and display a probationary sign. 2. Inspect the vehicle before entering the highway and be aware of the speed limits. The minimum speed on the highway should not be less than 60 km/h, and the maximum speed should not exceed 120 km/h. 3. Pay attention to road signs, markings, and warning signs. 4. When exiting the highway, merge into the outermost lane in advance upon seeing the 1.5 km or 1 km exit signs. 5. Maintain a safe following distance. Keeping an appropriate distance is crucial for driving safety. Many novice drivers, due to lack of experience, may misjudge distances and follow too closely, potentially leading to insufficient braking time.
