What are the penalties for driving the wrong way on a one-way road?
1 Answers
Driving the wrong way on a one-way road in urban areas (including one-way roads) will result in a fine and a deduction of 3 points; driving the wrong way on a one-way road on highways (including ramps and toll booth exits) will result in a fine, a deduction of 12 points, and may also lead to the suspension of the driver's license for twelve months. A one-way road refers to a road where motor vehicles can only travel in one direction, and there may be multiple lanes. Driving the wrong way refers to traveling in the opposite direction of the designated road. Driving the wrong way on a one-way road can easily cause traffic accidents and is strictly prohibited by law. One-way roads have clearly marked prohibited sections, and not all one-way roads continue indefinitely. Generally, traffic police departments will designate one-way roads in areas such as hospitals, schools, and government offices. It is essential to pay close attention, as prohibited sections usually have clear signage, so check ahead of time.
