1 Answers
According to the relevant regulations of the Road Traffic Safety Law, reversing on highways not only results in a fine but also incurs a full 12 demerit points at once. This means that the offending driver must participate in road safety knowledge training and examinations organized by the traffic management department. Reversing is prohibited at railway crossings, intersections, one-way roads, bridges, sharp curves, steep slopes, or tunnels. Below is additional information: 1. Demerit Point Standards: Reversing at a traffic light intersection results in 3 demerit points for violating the regulations on driving behavior. If the vehicle is captured by an electronic eye and identified as running a red light, 6 demerit points will be deducted. Generally, according to traffic regulations, drivers should pay attention to the surroundings before and during reversing and only proceed when it is safe to do so. 2. Running a Red Light: If a vehicle continues to move after the light turns red and is captured by an electronic eye showing movement or crossing the line, it is considered running a red light, which incurs 6 demerit points as per regulations.
