What to Do When Crossing the Stop Line and the Red Light Turns On?
1 Answers
Solutions for crossing the stop line when the red light turns on include: 1. If the vehicle has not completely passed through the intersection, the correct action is to observe carefully, avoid stopping, and proceed slowly through the traffic light; 2. If only the front wheels have crossed the stop line while the rear wheels remain behind it when the red light turns on, the proper approach is to stop the vehicle immediately and wait for the next signal light before proceeding according to the traffic light. If the entire vehicle crosses the stop line and stops on the pedestrian crossing after the red light has turned on, this generally does not count as running a red light but is still a violation known as over-the-line stopping, which incurs a 2-point penalty. However, if the vehicle moves noticeably on the pedestrian crossing or obstructs pedestrian traffic, it will be considered as running a red light.
