Will smoking while driving be penalized if caught by traffic cameras?
2 Answers
Smoking while driving will not result in penalty points if caught by traffic cameras. Introduction 1: Regarding smoking while driving, only some regions enforce penalties based on local regulations, while others have no explicit rules. For example, Nanjing has relevant laws that impose a fine of 50 yuan for smoking while operating a motor vehicle, as it is considered behavior that hinders safe driving. Introduction 2: If caught smoking while driving by traffic police, they may issue a ticket, as this is not a good driving habit and can easily obstruct safe driving. Drivers should cultivate good driving habits, such as wearing seat belts, not making phone calls, and not eating while driving.
As a guy who frequently drives long distances, I gotta say this. Smoking while driving can indeed be caught by traffic cameras and result in penalty points. I got busted before - fined 200 yuan with 2 points deducted. Smoking causes distraction, making you fumble and prone to accidents. Those cameras specifically target such distracted behaviors. Traffic regulations are super strict nowadays, especially with dense camera coverage in cities where smoking gestures get recorded instantly. For safety, I now try to finish smoking at service stations before hitting the road, or simply quit. Developing good habits not only saves you fines and points but also reduces dangerous accidents. After all, nobody wants to harm themselves or others, right?
