Can I drive with an expired temporary license plate?
1 Answers
Temporary license plates cannot be used after they expire. The validity period of a temporary license plate generally does not exceed thirty days, and there are roughly four types: temporary license plates for administrative jurisdictions, temporary license plates for cross-administrative jurisdictions, temporary license plates for testing purposes, and temporary license plates for special-type motor vehicles. New cars must not use temporary license plates for more than 15 days, and the owner should promptly apply to the vehicle management authority for a formal license plate. A temporary license plate for a car is a temporary vehicle driving certificate issued by the public security vehicle management department before the car is officially registered due to the processing of certain procedures. Before obtaining a formal license plate, it is necessary to apply for a temporary motor vehicle license plate in accordance with regulations to drive on the road. Two temporary license plates should be affixed simultaneously: one should be affixed to the lower left or right corner of the front windshield inside the car in a position that does not obstruct the driver's view, and the other should be affixed to the lower left corner of the rear windshield inside the car.
