Points will be deducted for not following the direction at an intersection without traffic lights. The specific details are as follows: Reason one: The cameras at intersections without traffic lights are not for capturing traffic violations; such cameras are generally surveillance cameras. Reason two: Not following the direction may not necessarily be captured, but at intersections with traffic lights or places equipped with cameras, the likelihood of being photographed for not following the direction is higher. Information about traffic lights is as follows: Traffic lights: Also known as traffic signal lights, they indicate whether vehicles and pedestrians can proceed. They are usually installed at intersections and other places requiring traffic control, generally consisting of red, green, and yellow lights; the red light means stop, the green light means go, and the yellow light means caution. Categories of traffic lights: Motor vehicle signal lights, non-motor vehicle signal lights, pedestrian crossing signal lights, directional indicator lights (arrow signal lights), flashing warning signal lights, etc.
In our area, even intersections without traffic lights have directional arrows marked on the road. If you don't follow the indicated direction, you will definitely get penalty points. Yesterday while driving, I almost made a mistake by nearly going straight into a turning lane. Luckily, there was no camera, otherwise I would have surely been fined and penalized. The actual penalty is usually 3 points and a 200 yuan fine, and it may also lead to an accident being recorded. Many cities have installed intelligent monitoring systems specifically to catch such violations. It's advisable to always pay attention to road signs and not be as careless as I was.
