After obtaining official vehicle license plates, temporary license plates cannot continue to be used. Below is a detailed introduction to temporary license plates: According to regulations, temporary license plates are only for temporary transitional use and generally have a validity period of 7 days. Once the official license plates are issued, the vehicle owner should promptly install the official plates. When the official plates are installed, the temporary license plates can no longer be used. According to Article 11 of China's "Road Traffic Safety Law": When driving a motor vehicle on the road, the vehicle must display the motor vehicle license plate, place the inspection qualification mark and insurance mark, and carry the motor vehicle registration certificate. The motor vehicle registration certificate and license plate must be displayed as required and kept clear and intact, and must not be intentionally obscured or damaged. No unit or individual may confiscate or detain motor vehicle license plates.

What should you do when driving a motor vehicle on wet roads?

Maintain a longer distance from the vehicle in front. A longer following distance can reduce the impact of water spray from the front vehicle's tires on your visibility. Control the steering smoothly. In case of heavy rain, stop the vehicle immediately. After driving through a waterlogged area, perform several light brake applications to dry the brake pads.
