Is it necessary to display the compulsory traffic insurance label now?

If electronic insurance policies have been implemented locally, there is no need to display the compulsory traffic insurance label on the vehicle; if electronic policies have not yet been implemented, the compulsory traffic insurance label must be displayed. According to Article 95 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law": If a motor vehicle driven on the road does not display the inspection qualification label or insurance label, or does not carry the vehicle license or driver's license, the traffic management department of the public security organ shall detain the motor vehicle, notify the party to provide the corresponding license, label, or complete the relevant procedures, and may impose penalties in accordance with the provisions of Article 90 of this Law (a warning or a fine of not less than 20 yuan but not more than 200 yuan). As of 2022, provinces and cities that have abolished the paper label for compulsory traffic insurance include: Beijing, Shanghai, Shandong, Shanxi, Guangdong, Henan, Hubei, Hunan, Jiangxi, Guizhou, Guangxi, Yunnan, Shaanxi, Hebei, Sichuan, and Gansu. Compulsory Traffic Insurance for Vehicles: The full name of compulsory traffic insurance is "Compulsory Liability Insurance for Motor Vehicle Traffic Accidents." It is a compulsory liability insurance under which the insurance company compensates for personal injuries, deaths, and property losses of victims (excluding vehicle occupants and the insured) caused by road traffic accidents involving the insured motor vehicle within the liability limits. The premium is based on the nationally unified standard rates. However, the price of compulsory traffic insurance varies for different vehicle types, primarily influenced by the number of vehicle seats. Compared to the more than 20 exemption clauses in commercial third-party insurance, the scope of exemptions for compulsory traffic insurance covers losses caused by intentional actions of the victim, property losses of the insured, related arbitration and litigation costs, and some indirect losses caused by accidents, with a much broader coverage. Moreover, regardless of whether the insured vehicle is at fault in the accident, compulsory traffic insurance will provide compensation within the liability limits. Introduction to Electronic Insurance Policies: An electronic insurance policy refers to an electronic policy issued by an insurance company with its electronic signature, using digital signature software and enterprise digital certificates that comply with the PKI system. An insurance policy, abbreviated as a policy, is the formal written proof of an insurance contract between the insurer and the insured. The policy must fully record the rights, obligations, and responsibilities of both parties to the insurance contract. The content recorded in the policy serves as the basis for both parties to fulfill the contract. The insurance policy is proof of the establishment of the insurance contract. Advantages of Electronic Insurance Policies: Saves paper resources, eliminating the need to print insurance proof labels; Time-saving and convenient, unrestricted by time or location, with information universally accessible online anytime, fast and easy; Can apply for reissuance or resending, no need to worry about losing it, and paper versions can be printed or mailed if needed offline; Easy management, with electronic unification making it easier for insurance companies and traffic police departments to manage the insurance information of various vehicles.
