Can items be placed on the dashboard?

Items can be placed on the dashboard, but care should be taken not to obstruct the driver's line of sight. Article 62, Section 2 of the 'Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China' states that drivers of motor vehicles shall not hang or place items within the front or rear window areas of the vehicle that obstruct the driver's view. Hanging decorations on the rearview mirror poses safety hazards. This behavior also violates Article 62, Section 2 of the 'Road Traffic Safety Law Implementation Regulations,' which prohibits hanging or placing items that obstruct the driver's view within the front or rear window areas of a motor vehicle. The violation code for this offense is 10490, and violators will be subject to fines. This applies not only to hanging decorations on the rearview mirror but also to placing decorations on the rear windshield. The so-called safe range refers to the size and height of the items hung or placed, which must not interfere with the driver's line of sight. Disadvantages of placing items: After placing decorations in the vehicle, if the vehicle brakes suddenly, items such as glasses, plastic figurines, etc., may fly around, not only obstructing the view but also potentially damaging the windshield, leading to unnecessary property losses.
