Can Private Cars Display Red Flags on Both Sides?
1 Answers
Private cars can display red flags on both sides. Below is relevant information about driving private vehicles: 1. Explanation: For non-commercial vehicles, exceeding the approved passenger capacity by less than 20% results in a 3-point penalty and a 100 yuan fine; exceeding by 20% or more results in a 6-point penalty and a 200 yuan fine. 2. Hazards of Overloading: (1) Vehicle overloading severely damages road infrastructure. Since overloaded vehicles far exceed the design load of roads and bridges, this leads to pavement damage, bridge fractures, and significantly shortens service life. (2) Overloaded vehicles have increased mass and inertia, leading to longer braking distances and higher risks. Severe overloading may cause tire blowouts, sudden swerving, brake failure, or rollovers due to excessive tire load and deformation. Additionally, overloading affects vehicle steering performance, increasing the risk of accidents due to loss of steering control.
