Can a newly purchased car be driven on the road immediately?
1 Answers
A newly purchased car cannot be driven on the road without a license plate. If driven, it will be impounded by traffic police and a fine of 200 yuan will be imposed. Any vehicle driven on the road without a license plate will be stopped by traffic police. Even when driving a new car home, you must first obtain a temporary license plate. It is best to apply for a temporary license plate before driving a new car on the road. According to traffic laws, unregistered motor vehicles without official license plates that need to be driven temporarily must obtain temporary permits. According to Article 95 of the Road Traffic Safety Law, motor vehicles driven on the road without license plates, inspection qualification marks, insurance marks, or without carrying the vehicle registration certificate or driver's license will be impounded by traffic management authorities. The authorities will notify the parties to provide the corresponding permits, marks, or complete the necessary procedures, and may impose penalties in accordance with Article 90 of this law. If the parties provide the corresponding permits, marks, or complete the necessary procedures, the vehicle should be promptly returned. Intentionally covering, damaging, or improperly installing license plates will result in penalties according to Article 90 of this law.
