No, it cannot be driven on the road. According to the "Road Traffic Safety Law," a warning or a fine ranging from 20 to 200 yuan may be imposed. Article 95 stipulates: If a motor vehicle driven on the road does not display the inspection qualification mark or insurance mark, or the driver does not carry the vehicle license or driving license, the traffic management department of the public security organ shall detain the motor vehicle and notify the party to provide the corresponding license, mark, or complete the necessary procedures. Compulsory Traffic Insurance for Motor Vehicles: The full name of compulsory traffic insurance is "Compulsory Liability Insurance for Motor Vehicle Traffic Accidents." It is a mandatory liability insurance where the insurance company compensates for personal injury, death, and property losses (excluding vehicle occupants and the insured) caused by road traffic accidents involving the insured motor vehicle within the liability limit. The premium is based on the nationally unified standard rates. However, the price of compulsory traffic insurance varies for different vehicle types, primarily influenced by the number of seats. Compared to the over 20 exemption clauses in commercial third-party insurance, compulsory traffic insurance covers a much broader range, including losses caused intentionally by the victim, the insured's own property losses, related arbitration and litigation costs, and certain indirect losses due to accidents. Moreover, regardless of whether the insured vehicle is at fault in an accident, compulsory traffic insurance will provide compensation within the liability limit, with no deductible or exemption. Introduction to Electronic Insurance Policies An electronic insurance policy refers to a digital policy issued by an insurance company using digital signature software and enterprise digital certificates that comply with the PKI system, bearing the electronic signature of the insurance company. An insurance policy, abbreviated as a policy, is the official written proof of the insurance contract between the insurer and the insured. The policy must fully record the rights, obligations, and responsibilities of both parties to the insurance contract. The content recorded in the policy serves as the basis for both parties to fulfill their obligations. The policy is proof of the establishment of the insurance contract. Advantages of Electronic Insurance Policies: Saves paper resources, eliminating the need to print insurance proof marks; Saves time and is convenient, unrestricted by time or location, with information readily available online anytime, quickly and easily; Allows for reissuance or resending, eliminating worries about loss, and if a paper version is needed offline, it can be printed or mailed; Facilitates management, as electronic unification makes it easier for insurance companies and traffic police departments to manage the insurance information of various vehicles.

As a seasoned motorcycle rider, I must emphasize the critical importance of compulsory traffic insurance for legal riding. In China, motorcycles are classified as motor vehicles, and the law mandates that they must be insured with compulsory traffic insurance to be road-legal. Without it, your motorcycle is considered unqualified for legal operation. If stopped by the police for inspection, you could face fines starting from several hundred yuan, and your vehicle may be impounded on the spot, severely disrupting your daily life. Even worse, in the event of an accident causing injury, death, or property damage to others, without compulsory insurance coverage, you would be personally liable for exorbitant compensation costs that most ordinary families simply cannot bear. From an administrative standpoint, uninsured vehicles will fail annual inspections, blocking all subsequent procedures. Therefore, I strongly advise everyone to develop the habit of regularly checking their insurance policies and renewing them on time. Don’t risk major losses for minor savings—safety is the foundation of riding.

I think riding a motorcycle on the road without compulsory insurance is simply asking for trouble. This insurance isn't just a paper requirement—it protects the lives and property of all road users. In case of an accident, if you're uninsured, you'll have to bear all third-party compensation costs yourself, which could lead to financial ruin or strained relationships. A riding buddy of mine learned this the hard way when he caused an accident with expired insurance and ended up bankrupt. Moreover, riding without insurance multiplies your risks and creates hurdles during annual inspections, adding unnecessary hassle. I suggest everyone checks their policy validity before heading out and sets phone reminders for renewal dates—a small step that can prevent major disasters. Following the rules isn't just about personal responsibility; it's a sign of respect for society.

Riding a motorcycle without compulsory traffic insurance is definitely not acceptable, and it's economically unwise. The annual fee for compulsory insurance is just over 100 yuan, affordable and easy to purchase. However, being fined once for no insurance costs at least two to three hundred yuan, and accident compensation can be a bottomless pit. I used to neglect it for convenience and almost suffered heavy losses, then realized: regular renewal is the lowest-cost protection. The premium is low but can prevent huge losses, making it a worthwhile investment. I suggest everyone budgets this small amount and promptly handles it through insurance companies or online for safety and peace of mind.
