A non-functioning headlight can result in a fine. Here are the specific details regarding the penalty: 1. Laws and Regulations: According to the Road Traffic Law, before driving a motor vehicle on the road, the driver should inspect the vehicle's safety and technical performance. It is prohibited to drive a vehicle with incomplete safety facilities or components that do not meet technical standards, as these pose safety hazards. Violating this regulation may result in a warning or a fine ranging from 20 to 200 yuan. For safe driving considerations, Article 90 of the Road Traffic Law stipulates that driving with incomplete vehicle lighting will result in a fine of 100 yuan and a deduction of one point from the driver's license. 2. Handling Methods: If a car headlight fails during nighttime driving, it is best to find a safe place to park, turn on the hazard lights, place a warning sign 150 meters away from the vehicle to alert oncoming traffic, avoid unnecessary movement, retreat to a safe location, and call for roadside assistance as soon as possible.

Is Driving at 160 km/h on the Highway Considered Speeding?

On highways where the speed limit is between 60-120 km/h, driving at 160 km/h exceeds the 120 km/h limit and is considered speeding. This falls under the traffic violation of exceeding the speed limit by more than 20% but less than 50%, which results in a penalty of 6 demerit points and a fine of 200 yuan. Additional details are as follows: 1. Legal Provisions: According to the "Traffic Safety Law," driving below the minimum speed limit by 20% will result in 3 demerit points and a fine of 200 yuan. Exceeding the maximum speed limit by more than 10% will also result in 3 demerit points and a fine of 200 yuan, while exceeding the maximum speed limit by more than 50% will lead to 12 demerit points and the revocation of the driver's license. 2. Middle Lane: On highways, the speed limit for the middle lane is between 90 km/h and 110 km/h.
