I don't know if you have ever encountered a situation where the car in front of you does not go when you are waiting for the traffic light at the intersection. Is it that someone will frantically honk their horn, or keep complaining, or change lanes to overtake and leave?

The owner Xiao Wu encountered such a situation when he went out, at an intersection, the car in front was more nervous due to lack of experience, and he still couldn't get up even after waiting for 3 traffic lights. Xiao Wu was very anxious, and wanted to change lanes, but when he saw a traffic police officer on duty at the intersection, he broke his mind. Unexpectedly, the traffic police couldn't stand it, and after coming forward to ask, they personally helped him drive the car through the intersection.

Then the question is, if Xiao Wu chooses to change lanes because the car in front of him has not been going, will he be deducted points?

It is illegal to not go at the green light, whether it is a car or a non-motor vehicle, there are actually a lot of traffic accident disputes that occur because the green light does not go. Here's what the traffic law says:

If the vehicle shows no signs of driving and is parked for too long while the traffic light (green light) is on, it will be punished according to the regulations such as "Failure to follow the traffic light" and "Affecting traffic conditions".

Therefore, the green light must be driven as soon as possible, otherwise it is an illegal act, and the traffic police will deduct points and fine. Some time ago, a man looked at his mobile phone when waiting for the traffic light, but he didn't pay attention to the green light and didn't move, and after being verified by the traffic police, he was finally punished with a penalty of deducting 2 points and a fine of 50 yuan.

If the car in front doesn't move, what should I do with the car behind?

In fact, judging from the specific score, what is the reason for the delay in the front car.

1. Failure to notice the green light or temporary flame-out

The driver of the front car was stunned and didn't pay attention, and the driver of the rear car just honked the horn to remind him. Temporary shutdown is also more common, after all, novice drivers are inevitably not up to the mark, there is a dilemma of starting to stall, at this time it is best to wait for the front car to drive normally and then follow, because for novices to turn off the engine will definitely be nervous, the second shutdown is also possible, if you follow too tightly, it is very easy to rear-end.

Second, you can't go in the event of a breakdown.

If the vehicle in front is unable to drive normally due to a malfunction, the vehicle behind you has two options:

a.Use the dashcam to record the real-time road conditions of the car in front, ** content and length can ensure the authenticity of the car condition in front and keep it perfect, after the line passes, if you receive a violation notice, you can go to the traffic police department for reconsideration;

b.If you are not in a hurry, you can choose to wait for the relevant traffic police officers to arrive at the scene to direct and pass.

Therefore, if Xiao Wu chose to change lanes at that time, if there is a corresponding dash cam as evidence, you can go to the traffic police department for reconsideration.

Suggested by the old driver.

If you're new to driving, here are a few things to keep in mind at intersections:

1. When you are about to reach the intersection, especially at an unfamiliar intersection, carefully observe whether there is a traffic light ahead, pay attention to control your speed, and slow down in advance.

2. Pay attention to the direction of your lane when passing through the intersection, the three lanes are generally left turn lanes, go straight in the middle, go straight on the right and turn right lanes, and see the intersection signs for multiple lanes. Always return to your lane before approaching an intersection where the lane becomes solid; If you forcibly change lanes when you reach the intersection, you will be deducted points for violating the compaction line.

3. Slow through the traffic light intersection, if you encounter a pedestrian running a red light, pay attention to stop in time to avoid, regardless of whether the pedestrian violates the traffic rules, the vehicle must first avoid the pedestrian.

4. On the road during the internship period, remember that it is best to be accompanied by an old driver, practice more on the road with simple road lines and good road conditions, and be familiar with the performance of the vehicle!
