Can RV Trailers Drive on Highways?

RV trailers are allowed on highways. The specific regulations are as follows: Trailer-type RVs must be licensed to operate on the road. The revised "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations" implemented on October 1, 2008, provide clear provisions regarding the licensing of full-trailer vehicles (Article 8, Chapter 2): When registering a full-trailer or semi-trailer vehicle combination, the vehicle management office shall issue separate motor vehicle registration certificates, license plates, and vehicle licenses for the towing vehicle and the trailer. According to the "Several Opinions on Promoting the Development of Self-driving and RV Tourism": Small passenger cars equipped with towing devices that meet national standards can tow mid-axle travel trailers with a weight not exceeding 2.5 tons, a length not exceeding 8000mm, a width not exceeding 2500mm, and a height not exceeding 4000mm. Article 56 of the "Implementation Regulations of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China" stipulates the following requirements for vehicles towing trailers: Trucks, semi-trailer tractors, and tractors are only allowed to tow one trailer. The lighting signals, brakes, connections, and safety protection devices of the trailer must comply with national standards; Small passenger cars are only allowed to tow travel trailers or trailers with a total mass of less than 700 kilograms, and trailers are not allowed to carry passengers; The current trailer-type RVs are classified as light residential semi-trailers or medium residential semi-trailers in the "Motor Vehicle License of the People's Republic of China". In other words, in China, towing trailers or residential trailers weighing less than 700 kilograms is generally compliant with traffic regulations.
