Will points be deducted for stopping past the stop line?
1 Answers
Yes, if the vehicle crosses the line after the red light turns on but remains stationary, it does not count as "running a red light." However, stopping after crossing the stop line is still a violation and will result in a deduction of two points. 1. How to handle it: If it was indeed a mistake—such as not noticing the red light—you can check if you can choose to make a right turn. Generally, right turns are allowed at any time and do not require waiting for the traffic light. 2. Traffic rules: When the red light is on, vehicles are prohibited from proceeding; when the green light is on, vehicles are permitted to proceed, but turning vehicles must not obstruct the passage of straight-moving vehicles or pedestrians; when the yellow light is on, vehicles that have already crossed the stop line may continue to proceed.
