Will I be penalized for making a right turn from a straight lane?
1 Answers
Making a right turn from a straight lane will result in a 3-point penalty and a fine. According to regulations, when entering a traffic intersection, motor vehicles must follow the directional lanes marked on the ground. If it is a straight lane, you can only go straight; if it is a combined straight and right-turn lane, you may make a right turn. Introduction to vehicle turning: When turning, due to factors such as terrain, traffic conditions, and driving resistance, vehicles usually need to reduce speed. Drivers should observe the road conditions in the intended turning direction through the rearview mirror. If conditions permit and safety is ensured, the turn signal should be activated before executing the turn. After the turn is completed and the steering wheel is straightened, the turn signal will automatically turn off. However, if the steering wheel is turned before activating the turn signal due to negligence, the automatic turn-off function will fail, and the driver must manually turn off the signal after completing the turn. Precautions for turning: When turning, adjust the steering wheel angle appropriately according to the turning requirements, avoiding excessive rotation. Avoid braking during the turn, especially emergency braking, as this may increase the risk of rollover. If the front wheels skid during the turn, lift the accelerator pedal and turn the steering wheel in the opposite direction. If the rear wheels skid, gently turn the steering wheel in the direction of the turn until the skid stops, then correct the driving direction. Always yield to vehicles going straight; turning vehicles should wait for straight-moving vehicles to pass before turning. Additionally, be mindful of other vehicles, bicycles, and pedestrians to ensure safety.
