What is the penalty for not yielding to pedestrians?
1 Answers
Not yielding to pedestrians results in a 3-point deduction. According to the Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses: When driving a motor vehicle across a pedestrian crossing without decelerating, stopping, or yielding to pedestrians as required, 3 points will be deducted. Motor vehicles should slow down when approaching pedestrian crossings; when pedestrians are crossing, the vehicle must stop and yield; on roads without traffic signals, drivers must yield to crossing pedestrians. Drivers are required to take measures such as slowing down or stopping when approaching pedestrians on zebra crossings. Actively yielding or showing courtesy to pedestrians is a concrete manifestation of drivers' respect for pedestrians and life.
