Why is there no penalty for changing lanes over solid lines?
2 Answers
Changing lanes over solid lines without penalty occurs because the traffic cameras are installed ahead of the violation location, making it impossible to capture the illegal act. Below is relevant information about vehicle violations: 1. On-the-spot ticket issuance: If a traffic officer issues a penalty decision on the spot for a vehicle violation, the offender must go to the local traffic division or detachment to handle the violation. In such cases, the violation must be processed at the location where it occurred; it cannot be handled back in the home jurisdiction. 2. Electronic monitoring tickets: If the violation is captured by an electronic eye without an on-the-spot ticket being issued, after checking the violation record on the traffic management bureau's website, if it falls under the general simplified procedure category, it can be processed in a different location.
I've driven many cars, and sometimes crossing solid lines to change lanes goes unnoticed, mainly due to lax traffic enforcement or too many blind spots. Many road sections aren't equipped with cameras, and police checks aren't frequent. For instance, when I often drive on rural roads, crossing solid lines is completely ignored. During peak hours in the city, the roads are crowded and chaotic, and cameras might not catch everything. However, this is just luck and doesn't mean it's safe. Crossing solid lines can lead to rear-end collisions or penalty points. I suggest everyone avoid taking risks and drive more cautiously. Regularly check your route and change lanes in advance to avoid risks and save trouble. In short, not getting fined doesn't mean it's right; pay attention when road conditions are good.
