Driving without a license plate on the road will result in a fine and 12 demerit points. Vehicles without license plates will be impounded, while those carrying their license plates will not be impounded. Regulations for handling unlicensed driving: Driving without a license plate and without proper documentation will result in vehicle impoundment, a fine, and 12 demerit points. If the license plate is carried in the vehicle and all documents are complete, generally only demerit points and a fine will be imposed, without vehicle impoundment, and a penalty of 12 demerit points will be applied. Legal basis: Article 11 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China" states: When driving a motor vehicle on the road, the motor vehicle license plate must be displayed, along with the inspection qualification mark and insurance mark, and the motor vehicle driving license must be carried with the vehicle. Motor vehicle license plates must be displayed in accordance with regulations and kept clear and intact, and must not be intentionally obscured or damaged. No unit or individual may confiscate or detain motor vehicle license plates.
