Is a car with 5 adults and 1 child considered overloaded?
1 Answers
If it is a car with a rated capacity of five people, having an extra child also constitutes overloading. Relevant information is as follows: 1. Article 92 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law" stipulates: For passenger vehicles on highways carrying more than the rated number of passengers, a fine of not less than 200 yuan but not more than 500 yuan shall be imposed. If the number of passengers exceeds 20% of the rated capacity or goods are carried in violation of regulations, a fine of not less than 500 yuan but not more than 2,000 yuan shall be imposed. 2. For freight vehicles, Article 92 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law" stipulates: For freight motor vehicles exceeding the approved load capacity, a fine of not less than 200 yuan but not more than 500 yuan shall be imposed. If the load exceeds 30% of the approved capacity or passengers are carried in violation of regulations, a fine of not less than 500 yuan but not more than 2,000 yuan shall be imposed. 3. Penalty points: Any vehicle exceeding 20% of the approved number of passengers is considered overloaded and will be penalized according to the new traffic regulations.
