Will I be penalized for going straight in a left-turn lane at a traffic light intersection?

Going straight in a lane that allows straight movement with the left turn signal on will not result in penalties or demerit points. However, going straight in a lane that does not permit straight movement with the left turn signal on constitutes a violation of prohibited marking instructions and will lead to penalties and demerit points. Additional information: 1. According to the "Regulations on the Handling Procedures for Road Traffic Safety Violations": If a party fails to fulfill the administrative penalty decision within the specified period, the traffic management department of the public security organ that made the administrative penalty decision may take the following measures: (1) If the fine is not paid by the due date, an additional fine of 3% of the fine amount will be imposed daily, with the total additional fine not exceeding the original fine amount; (2) Apply to the People's Court for compulsory enforcement. 2. Article 63: For non-local motor vehicle drivers applying to participate in full-score study and examinations at the location where the violation occurred, the traffic management department of the public security organ shall permit it. After passing the examination, the detained motor vehicle driver's license will be returned, and the examination pass information will be forwarded to the traffic management department of the public security organ at the license issuance location.
