Can four people sit in the back of a sedan?
1 Answers
The number of people allowed in the back seat of a sedan depends on the vehicle's rated seating capacity. Here are some examples: A sedan rated for 5 people can only accommodate 3 in the back seat. Sitting 4 people would exceed the capacity by 20%. For private vehicles, exceeding the rated passenger capacity by more than 20% results in a 6-point deduction on the driver's license and a fine. Relevant regulations: The "Scoring Standards for Road Traffic Safety Violations" and the "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China" have corresponding provisions. According to the Scoring Standards for Road Traffic Safety Violations, driving a commercial passenger vehicle (excluding buses) or school bus with passengers exceeding the rated capacity by less than 20%, or driving other passenger vehicles with passengers exceeding the rated capacity by more than 20%, will be penalized. According to Article 90 of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China, motor vehicle drivers who violate road traffic safety laws and regulations regarding road traffic rules shall be given a warning or fined. If there are other provisions in this law, penalties shall be imposed accordingly.
