An unlicensed vehicle cannot drive on the highway. According to the "Road Traffic Safety Law," unlicensed new vehicles are not allowed on the road, let alone the highway. They must be registered with the traffic management department of the public security authority before being driven on the road. If temporary road use is required, a temporary license plate should be obtained. Below is more information about license plates: 1. Vehicle License Plate: It is a hard-numbered plate with a unified format and style as stipulated by national vehicle management regulations. The vehicle management authority issues it after reviewing, inspecting, and registering the vehicle that has applied for the plate. 2. Legal Basis: Article 8 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law" states that the country implements a registration system for motor vehicles. Motor vehicles can only be driven on the road after being registered with the traffic management department of the public security authority. For motor vehicles that have not yet been registered but need temporary road use, a temporary pass or license plate must be obtained. According to the new traffic regulations, motor vehicles without license plates are strictly prohibited from being driven on the road. New vehicles must display either a permanent or temporary license plate to be driven legally. 3. Consequences: Driving a motor vehicle on the road without a license plate, or intentionally covering, damaging, or improperly installing the license plate, will result in a one-time deduction of 12 points. Additionally, driving a new vehicle without a license plate carries the risk of the insurance company refusing to cover the commercial insurance portion in the event of an accident, as driving without a license plate falls under the insurer's exemption clause.
