Can a 150cc Motorcycle Go on the Highway?
1 Answers
Yes, it can. According to the "Implementation Regulations of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China," motorcycles must have a displacement greater than 125cc to be allowed on highways, and a 150cc motorcycle meets this requirement. Motorcycles are also classified as motor vehicles and can be driven on highways under certain conditions. In addition, motorcycles must meet the following requirements to be driven on highways: Highways must have three or more lanes, and motorcycles can only use the outermost lane; The speed of a motorcycle on the highway must not be less than 60 km/h and must not exceed 80 km/h; The motorcycle rider must have all necessary licenses and permits, including a valid motorcycle driver's license, proper motorcycle registration, and compulsory insurance (e.g., traffic liability insurance). Important considerations for riding a motorcycle on the highway include: Except during national holidays when tolls are waived, motorcycles are charged the same as small passenger vehicles with fewer than seven seats; in case of a breakdown, turn on hazard lights, park the motorcycle in the emergency lane, and place a warning sign; exercise caution when overtaking, always use turn signals, and carefully check the surroundings before overtaking.
