How many points are deducted for making a U-turn over double solid yellow lines?

According to Article 26 of the Road Traffic Safety Law, violators who make a U-turn over double solid yellow lines will be fined 200 yuan and receive 3 demerit points. Generally, on long roads, solid white lines are usually present in the middle section or before intersections. If there are yellow dashed lines or white dashed lines, U-turns are permitted. However, U-turns are strictly prohibited over any solid lines, so drivers should carefully observe before attempting a U-turn. Permissible U-turn situations: U-turn allowed when intersection has U-turn signs: If there is a clear U-turn sign at the intersection, U-turns are permitted. If there is a U-turn traffic light, drivers must follow its instructions. In the absence of such signals, U-turns may be made provided they do not interfere with other vehicles or pedestrians. U-turn allowed when intersection has no explicit prohibition signs: U-turns are permitted at intersections without explicit "No U-turn" or "No Left Turn" signs, and where the center line is not solid. The term "no explicit prohibition" means that as long as there are no "No U-turn" signs, "No Left Turn" signs, or solid center lines, U-turns can be safely executed. U-turns allowed over yellow grid lines: Yellow grid lines are no-stopping zones typically marked at intersections prone to congestion due to temporary parking, important institution entrances, and other necessary locations. Stopping on these grids (including waiting at traffic lights) constitutes a violation. Although vehicles cannot stop in yellow grid zones, U-turns are permitted there. Unless there is a central barrier, yellow grid lines are equivalent to "U-turn permitted" areas. Intersections with U-turn traffic lights: This is straightforward—if a U-turn traffic light exists, drivers must wait for the green light to proceed with the U-turn. When "No Left Turn" and "U-turn Permitted" signs coexist: U-turns are allowed even if left turns are prohibited. Note that "No U-turn" does not necessarily mean "No Left Turn." Precautions when making U-turns at intersections: Observe road markings: U-turns are strictly prohibited over solid lines under any circumstances. Drivers should continue forward to find a suitable U-turn spot. If a "No Left Turn" sign is present, U-turns are also prohibited at that intersection, even if there is no explicit "No U-turn" sign, because U-turns inherently involve left-turning movements. U-turns must be made from the innermost left-turn lane. Attempting a U-turn from the second left-turn lane is not permitted. U-turning vehicles must yield to through traffic and proceed only when it does not disrupt the normal flow of straight-moving vehicles, otherwise they will bear full responsibility for any accidents. Near intersection stop lines, lanes typically have guiding arrows. Not all leftmost lanes have left-turn arrows—some may have straight arrows instead. Even without explicit "No U-turn" signs, U-turns are prohibited in such lanes. U-turns must not be executed on pedestrian crosswalks, as this constitutes a traffic violation.

How to Solve the Strong Odor in Tucson?

Park the car in a safe open area, then open all doors and windows under the sun. After continuous exposure to sunlight for 2-3 days, most of the odors inside the car can be removed. The remaining odors can be eliminated by ensuring proper ventilation during daily driving. This is because sunlight exposure generates high temperatures inside the car, which activates harmful gases, allowing them to dissipate through the open windows and doors.

How to Use Lights When Meeting Another Car at Night?

When meeting another car at night, you must turn on the low beam. If you were previously using the high beam, be sure to switch back to the low beam in advance. When meeting another car, quickly switching between high and low beams can alert the other driver.
