What is the difference between normal lane changing and cutting in line?
1 Answers
Normal lane changing refers to the driver changing lanes under normal traffic conditions without affecting the movement of vehicles behind. On the other hand, cutting in line refers to abnormal or malicious lane changes that negatively impact vehicles behind, potentially causing sudden deceleration or braking, leading to traffic congestion and jams. Below are relevant details: 1. Penalties for cutting in line: At intersections controlled by traffic signals, failing to enter the designated lane as required by the intended direction of travel will result in corresponding fines and a 2-point penalty. When encountering slow-moving or queued vehicles ahead, weaving between or overtaking them from either side will also incur corresponding fines and a 2-point penalty. 2. Precautions: Before changing lanes, always activate the turn signal, check the rearview mirror, and ensure there are no vehicles approaching from the blind spots on either side.
