How Many Points Are Deducted for Overloading a Car?
1 Answers
For cars with less than 20% overcapacity, 3 points will be deducted and a fine imposed; for those exceeding 20%, 6 points will be deducted along with a fine. Below is relevant information about the hazards of overloading: Hazards: Research has found that when a vehicle's axle load exceeds the standard load by one time, driving on the highway once is equivalent to a standard vehicle driving on asphalt pavement 256 times or on concrete pavement 65,536 times. Moreover, the larger the vehicle's rated load capacity, the more severe the damage caused by overloading to the road. The maximum single rear axle load monitored in China reached 24 tons. One trip by such a vehicle on a concrete road is equivalent to 1.21 million trips by a standard vehicle. Negative Impacts: Overloading causes significant harm to the healthy development of the transportation market. It leads to market chaos, completely disrupting the basic pricing system of the transportation market. Under normal circumstances, transportation pricing is based on the cubic volume and weight of the cargo, negotiated as a lump sum for the entire vehicle. Overloading also severely pollutes the atmospheric environment.
