How many points will be deducted for driving on the elevated road with a temporary license plate?
2 Answers
The specific rules for point deductions when driving on an elevated road with a temporary license plate are as follows: 1. Cars with only a temporary license plate and no official license plate will not be penalized with points for driving on an elevated road. 2. Cars that already have an official license plate but still use a temporary license plate will be fined 200 yuan and have 12 points deducted. Below is more information about temporary license plates: 1. There are four types of temporary license plates: temporary license plates within the administrative jurisdiction (for new cars sold within the city), temporary license plates across administrative jurisdictions (for new cars sold to other regions), temporary license plates for test vehicles (test cars, engineering prototypes, etc.), and temporary license plates for special vehicles. 2. Normally, new car owners should promptly apply for a temporary license plate after obtaining the vehicle invoice, new car certificate, and compulsory insurance policy. Vehicles are not allowed on the road without a temporary license plate.
I heard someone asking about whether temporary license plates can be used on elevated roads, so I thought I'd share some insights. Temporary plates are paper tags for newly purchased vehicles, but they're not allowed on elevated roads as these are urban expressways with high speeds and dense traffic. Vehicles with temporary plates haven't undergone complete inspections, making them prone to accidents. Regulations generally prohibit them from elevated roads, and if caught violating this rule, you'll face a 3-point deduction on your driver's license and a fine of 200-300 RMB. My advice is not to take this risk—just drive on regular city roads during the temporary plate period and wait patiently for your official plates. By the way, local regulations may vary slightly, so it's best to check your area's restrictions via a traffic management app to avoid regrets after being caught by cameras. Safe driving truly saves both money and hassle, especially for new drivers who should pay extra attention to this.
