Can Yellow Label Vehicles Enter Urban Areas?
1 Answers
Yellow label vehicles are not allowed to drive in urban areas. Below are the reasons and the implementation measures for replacing yellow label vehicles with new ones: Reasons why yellow label vehicles cannot drive in urban areas: Due to outdated exhaust emission control technology, yellow label vehicles fail to meet the Euro 1 standard, and their emissions are 5 to 10 times higher than those of new vehicles. During the "12th Five-Year Plan" period, various regions across the country implemented corresponding traffic control measures, such as restricting the driving areas, times, routes, or vehicle types of "yellow label vehicles" in cities, based on the needs of regional air pollution prevention. Implementation measures for replacing yellow label vehicles with new ones: The replacement period for old vehicles with new ones was set from June 1, 2009, to May 31, 2010. During this period, vehicle owners who sold their old or yellow label vehicles that met certain conditions to legally designated scrap vehicle recycling and dismantling enterprises and purchased new vehicles could receive subsidies.
