What are the penalties for not driving according to the guide lines?

[GavinFitz]

Not driving according to the guide lines will result in corresponding penalties, with specific regulations as follows: 1. Article 51 of the "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China" states that when motor vehicles pass through intersections controlled by traffic signals, they shall proceed as follows: at intersections with marked guide lanes, enter the guide lane according to the intended direction of travel. 2. According to Article 90 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China", motor vehicle drivers who violate the road traffic safety laws and regulations regarding road traffic rules shall be given a warning or fined not less than 20 yuan but not more than 200 yuan. If there are other provisions in this law, penalties shall be imposed in accordance with those provisions. 3. According to point 6 of the third point of the "Traffic Regulations", driving a motor vehicle on highways or urban expressways without following the designated lane will result in a 3-point penalty.

I've seen many cases of not following the guide lines while driving, and the penalty is usually a fine of 200 yuan plus 2 points deducted from the driver's license. I remember a few years ago, I carelessly changed lanes near a highway exit without noticing the guide markings and got caught by an electronic police camera. I felt terrible, but it was indeed my own fault for being careless. This kind of violation is particularly common at intersections and can easily lead to rear-end collisions or side-swipe accidents, posing significant safety risks. The key is to develop the habit of observing the route in advance, rather than making hasty turns when approaching an intersection. Points deduction is even more concerning—you only have 12 points a year, and once they're all deducted, you have to retake the test, which is quite a hassle. I recommend that new drivers practice more to familiarize themselves with various road markings and avoid repeating mistakes. Safe driving is more important than any penalty.

My buddy got into trouble last time for not following the guide lines. He was driving in the city and took a shortcut by crossing the channelizing line to change lanes, only to be caught by surveillance and fined 200 yuan with 2 points deducted. He initially thought it was no big deal, but after the penalty, he realized it could cause collisions or even block other lanes. The punishment might seem light, but points add up quickly, especially for young drivers who shouldn’t take it lightly. Relevant data also shows that accident rates are higher in sections where such violations frequently occur. Everyone should take this as a warning—guide lines aren’t just for show; they help maintain orderly traffic flow. I often remind myself and friends to plan routes in advance and follow the rules to avoid trouble.

The penalty for not following the guide line is usually a fine of around 200 yuan and 2 demerit points. I am quite concerned about safety issues. The design of the guide line is to direct the correct route and prevent chaotic driving that could lead to accidents such as rear-end collisions or head-on conflicts. The regulations are set to protect all road users. Speaking from personal experience, the fine is minor, but the potential harm is significant. Developing the habit of paying attention to road markings can reduce the occurrence of accidents. It is recommended to check the dashboard before each trip, stay focused, and ensure compliance with driving regulations.
