1 Answers
2021 national vehicle spray painting regulations: Commercial vehicles with 7 seats or more are required to have mandatory spray painting indicating the approved passenger capacity. Private vehicles are not subject to mandatory spray painting. The "Technical Conditions for Motor Vehicle Operation Safety" stipulate: All passenger vehicles (excluding dedicated school buses and public buses with standing areas for passengers) must display the number of seats provided for passengers (including the driver) in Chinese and Arabic numerals with a height of no less than 100mm in a visible location near the passenger door on the exterior of the vehicle. Training vehicles must have the words "Training Vehicle" sprayed on both sides and the rear of the vehicle with a height of no less than 100mm. Relevant regulations from the "Emergency Notice on Resolutely Preventing Major Traffic Accidents Involving Rural Minivans": Considering the specific conditions of large cities and rural areas, public security traffic management departments mainly carry out spray painting of approved passenger capacity prompts on minivans of brands such as Changan, Wuling, Changhe, Dongfeng, Hafei, Jinbei, Liuzhou, Foton, Zhongshun, Dongnan, Beidouxing, and Songhuajiang. The significance of vehicle body spray painting: First, it facilitates inspections by relevant authorities. Many owners purchase 7-seat models and then convert private vehicles into commercial vehicles. Spray painting on the vehicle body makes it easier for traffic police to inspect. If traffic police find that the number of passengers in the vehicle does not match the approved capacity, they will issue a fine to the violating owner. Second, it reduces safety hazards. Mandatory spray painting on the side of the vehicle body can restrict the number of passengers carried by the owner, avoiding overloading and thereby reducing safety hazards.
