Will novice drivers be penalized for crossing the line while driving?

Novice drivers will also be penalized for crossing the line while driving. The penalty for crossing the line is not related to whether the driver is a novice or an experienced one; it is strictly based on traffic violation standards. Types of line-crossing violations: There are two types of line-crossing violations that result in a 3-point deduction and a fine. One is crossing the line while driving, and the other is parking over the line. Crossing the line while driving refers to driving for an extended period across two lanes (where the lane divider is under your vehicle, not on either side). Parking over the line means that after the vehicle stops, the wheels are on or over the divider line (mainly referring to solid lines; generally, dashed lines are not considered). If you are manually photographed by traffic police while crossing a solid line, the penalty is also for line-crossing. Penalty standards for stopping over the line: Stopping over the line is not considered running a red light, but it generally results in a 2-point deduction and a fine. Compared to the 6-point deduction for directly running a red light, the 2-point deduction is relatively lighter (driving a motor vehicle through an intersection without following traffic or parking regulations results in a 2-point deduction).
