Can a new car without a temporary license plate drive on the highway?

[DiCarter]

A new car without a temporary license plate cannot drive on the highway. Additional information is as follows: 1. Legal Basis: Article 8 of the Road Traffic Safety Law stipulates that the state implements a registration system for motor vehicles. A motor vehicle can only be driven on the road after being registered by the traffic management department of the public security authority. For motor vehicles that have not yet been registered but need to be temporarily driven on the road, a temporary license must be obtained. According to new traffic regulations, motor vehicles without license plates are not allowed on the road. New cars must display either a permanent or temporary license plate to be driven legally. 2. Temporary License Plate: A temporary license plate is a paper motor vehicle license that permits temporary road use, also known as a temporary driving license plate. It serves as a provisional driving permit issued by the vehicle management department of the public security authority for newly purchased vehicles before formal registration.
