1 Answers
Rear-end collision with full liability does not result in demerit points. Below is relevant information about rear-end collisions: 1. Explanation: A rear-end collision with full liability is considered a traffic accident. According to the Road Traffic Safety Law, the at-fault party is required to compensate the other party involved. Additionally, based on relevant laws and regulations, after a traffic accident occurs, the traffic management department of the public security organ will no longer impose penalties for traffic violations. 2. Notes: (1) The party responsible for the rear-end collision must compensate for the losses incurred by the front vehicle. These losses can be covered by compulsory traffic insurance, with any insufficient amount covered by commercial third-party liability insurance. Any portion not covered by insurance or where coverage is insufficient must be borne by the driver. (2) If there are no traffic violations and no serious injuries or fatalities, the driver will not face demerit points. (3) If there are traffic violations, such as speeding or drunk driving, penalties will be imposed accordingly. (4) If the accident results in fatalities, the driver may face criminal liability, punishable by up to three years of imprisonment or criminal detention.
