What are the consequences for minors driving motor vehicles?
1 Answers
Minors are unable to obtain a driver's license, thus it is considered unlicensed driving. Below is more information regarding unlicensed driving of motor vehicles: 1. Driving a motor vehicle without obtaining a motor vehicle driver's license, or when the driver's license is revoked or temporarily suspended, will result in a fine ranging from 200 to 2,000 yuan and may also include detention for up to 15 days. 2. If the driver does not carry the motor vehicle driver's license, regardless of whether the driver commits any traffic violations during the journey, they are not allowed to continue driving the vehicle. The traffic management department of the public security authority shall impound the motor vehicle and require the driver to provide the driver's license. Different actions will be taken based on the circumstances of the provided driver's license. (1) If the provided driver's license is genuine, legal, and no traffic violations were committed while driving, a warning or a fine of 20-200 yuan will be issued, and the motor vehicle will be promptly returned. (2) If the provided driver's license is genuine and legal but traffic violations were committed while driving, penalties will be imposed based on the violations and the failure to carry the driver's license, and the motor vehicle will be promptly returned. (3) If the driver cannot provide a genuine and legal motor vehicle driver's license, it will be considered unlicensed driving, and penalties may be imposed as per the above circumstances.
