Is It Legal to Replace the Mercedes Logo with a Maybach Logo?
1 Answers
It is an illegal act. Driving a vehicle with altered logos on public roads violates the "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China." The law explicitly states that no one may "arbitrarily alter the registered structure, construction, or characteristics of a motor vehicle." Article 16 of the Road Traffic Safety Law stipulates that no unit or individual may engage in the following acts: assembling motor vehicles or arbitrarily altering the registered structure, construction, or characteristics of a motor vehicle; altering the model, engine number, frame number, or vehicle identification code of a motor vehicle; forging, altering, or using forged or altered motor vehicle registration certificates, license plates, driving licenses, inspection qualification marks, or insurance marks; or using the registration certificates, license plates, driving licenses, inspection qualification marks, or insurance marks of other motor vehicles.
