Will a U-turn over a crosswalk be captured by traffic cameras?

[VonPiper]

If there are electronic surveillance cameras, it will be captured as making a U-turn on a crosswalk is a traffic violation. According to the "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China," this offense incurs a 3-point penalty and a fine of 200 yuan. The basis for this is Article 49, which states: Motor vehicles are not allowed to make U-turns at locations with no U-turn or no left-turn signs or markings, as well as at railway crossings, pedestrian crossings, bridges, sharp curves, steep slopes, tunnels, or other dangerous road sections. Definition of yielding to pedestrians on crosswalks: When pedestrians are walking on the right side of the crosswalk and have not reached the centerline of the road, vehicles on the left side of the road should slow down and allow them to pass safely. When pedestrians are waiting outside the boundary line of the motorized and non-motorized lanes and have not entered the roadway, vehicles should slow down and allow them to pass safely. When pedestrians cross the boundary line between motorized and non-motorized lanes, vehicles that do not stop to let them pass are committing a violation and should be penalized. When pedestrians enter the motorized lane along the crosswalk, vehicles should slow down and allow them to pass safely. Vehicles that do not stop to let them pass are committing a violation and should be penalized. When pedestrians are waiting at the centerline of the road without entering the motorized lane, vehicles that do not stop to let them pass are committing a violation and should be penalized. When pedestrians cross the centerline of the road and enter the motorized lane, vehicles that do not stop to let them pass are committing a violation and should be penalized. When pedestrians are separated by a green belt in the middle of the road and are waiting in the designated area, vehicles should slow down and allow them to pass safely. Permissible U-turn situations: If there is a clear U-turn sign at an intersection, a U-turn is allowed; if there is a U-turn traffic light, follow the signal. If there is no traffic light, make a U-turn based on the specific situation without obstructing other vehicles or pedestrians. Intersections without explicit no U-turn or no left-turn signs allow U-turns: If there is no explicit prohibition, a U-turn is permitted. "No explicit prohibition" means the absence of "no U-turn signs," "no left-turn signs," or solid centerlines, in which case a U-turn can be made confidently. U-turns are also allowed on yellow grid lines: Yellow grid lines are no-stopping zones marked at intersections prone to congestion due to temporary parking, important unit entrances, and other necessary locations. Any vehicle stopping on these grid lines (including waiting for traffic lights) commits a violation. Although stopping is prohibited on yellow grid lines, U-turns are allowed unless there is a central barrier. Intersections with U-turn traffic lights: This is straightforward—if there is a U-turn traffic light, follow the signal; proceed only on green. When no left-turn and U-turn signs appear together: U-turns are allowed, but left turns are prohibited. Note that "no U-turn" is not the same as "no left-turn." Precautions when making U-turns at intersections: Observe road markings—if they are solid lines, U-turns are prohibited under any circumstances. Continue driving to find a suitable location. If there is a "no left-turn" sign ahead, even without a "no U-turn" sign, U-turns are not allowed at that intersection because U-turns inherently involve left turns. U-turns must be made from the innermost left-turn lane. If in the second left-turn lane, U-turns are not permitted at that intersection. Always yield to oncoming traffic when making a U-turn. Proceed only if it does not interfere with the normal flow of traffic; otherwise, you will bear full responsibility for any accidents. Near intersection stop lines, lanes typically have guiding arrows for vehicle direction. The leftmost lane does not always have a left-turn arrow—if it has a straight arrow, U-turns are prohibited even without explicit no U-turn signs.
