Will crossing the line at night result in penalty points?

Crossing the solid line at night will result in penalty points. The following situations where crossing the solid line does not incur penalty points: avoiding emergencies, such as when the road ahead is affected by traffic accidents or natural disasters, making it impassable for a long time, forcing vehicles behind to cross the line to pass, this will not be treated as a traffic violation. Following the instructions of traffic police: According to the "Road Traffic Safety Law," when encountering malfunctioning traffic signals and there are traffic police directing on-site, drivers should follow the instructions of the traffic police. Special vehicles performing tasks: If traffic violations such as running a red light or crossing the solid line occur due to giving way to special vehicles like fire trucks or ambulances, these actions are not considered violations. If penalized due to being captured by electronic surveillance, the penalty can be revoked through administrative reconsideration.

I remember that incident when I got penalized for crossing the line while driving at night. I was working overtime until midnight, and with no cars on the road, I got a bit careless and accidentally crossed the solid line. Then, on the third day, I received a text notification—3 points and 200 yuan gone! Actually, traffic cameras are fully operational at night, especially now with high-definition equipment that captures license plates crystal clear. Many people assume there's no enforcement at night, but that's completely wrong. Now, I make sure to pay extra attention to two things: first, always follow the navigation for early lane changes, and second, be even more vigilant about road markings at night. After all, it's easy to get drowsy or distracted late at night, but safety doesn’t take a break—day or night.

Lane crossing violations occur day and night. Last year, several people in our neighborhood got penalized at night due to poor visibility and negligence. In fact, modern traffic cameras are equipped with infrared night vision, making the capture rate much higher than expected. The penalty depends on the lane marking: crossing a solid line on highways will definitely result in a 3-point deduction plus a fine; on regular roads, crossing a dashed line might not be penalized, but crossing a solid line will be penalized 100%. The worst part about driving at night is poor reflection, especially when road signs are hard to see in the rain. It's advisable to keep a glass defogger in the car to maintain clear visibility. Following traffic rules is ultimately about taking responsibility for yourself.

Running over the line at night will definitely result in penalty points. I have personally witnessed electronic surveillance flashing at night to capture line-crossing violations. During the day, crossing a solid line results in a 3-point deduction, and the same standard applies at night. Many beginners think it's fine as long as there are no traffic police, but in reality, 24-hour automatic monitoring now covers most road sections. Safety-wise, it's important to note that crossing lines at night is particularly prone to causing rear-end collisions or scratches, especially on poorly lit road sections. If you encounter an emergency and need to change lanes, remember to use your turn signal and try to minimize crossing dashed lines. Simply put, whether it's day or night, driving by the rules is always the right choice.
