In China, the police will give warnings for minor traffic violations and inform you of the dangers of such actions. More serious traffic violations may result in fines ranging from 5 to 200 RMB. If you have a driver's license, points will be deducted from it. The most serious traffic offenses include drunk driving or causing injury or death, which may result in the cancellation of your driver's license, 7 days of detention, or imprisonment for 3 to 7 years.
There is also a unique form of punishment in China. If you violate traffic rules, the police will inform you of the danger of your action and then give you a flag. You need to direct traffic according to the traffic lights while holding the flag. When the green light is on, you should put the flag away; when the red light or other stop signals are on, you need to hold up the flag. This punishment usually takes about 30 minutes. If you catch another person violating traffic rules during this time, you can end the punishment early.

Because I did not wear my helmet properly and went the wrong way.
