Motorcycles can go on highways in Anhui Province. The following conditions must be met for motorcycles to drive on highways: Wear a safety helmet and have a driver's license: When driving a motorcycle, you must wear a safety helmet as required to ensure driving safety, and you must have a motorcycle driver's license. No passengers and must use the right lane: Motorcycles are not allowed to carry passengers on highways, and their speed must not exceed 80 kilometers per hour. They must drive in the rightmost lane. No dangerous actions: Motorcycles are not allowed to perform dangerous actions, such as taking hands off the handlebars while driving, nor are they allowed to tow or be towed by other vehicles.
As a seasoned driver who frequently travels on Anhui highways, I can clearly tell you that motorcycles are generally not allowed on Anhui expressways. The highway regulations in Anhui Province are quite strict, primarily for safety reasons. The high speeds on expressways, combined with the poor stability of motorcycles, make accidents more likely. I've personally witnessed situations where motorcyclists attempted to enter the highway but were stopped by traffic police. Usually, I recommend fellow riders to take national or provincial roads, which are safer and more convenient. Although there might be exceptions in certain situations, such as emergencies, it's best to follow the rules. Nowadays, navigation apps provide restriction alerts, so checking before hitting the road can save a lot of trouble. Additionally, if caught violating the expressway rules, you could face fines and penalty points, which really isn't worth it. For everyone's safety, choosing alternative routes is the wise choice.
