2021 Shanghai out-of-town license plate restrictions introduction: Private cars with out-of-town license plates are not allowed on the inner ring elevated roads, outer ring, and areas beyond the outer ring during peak hours from 7:00 to 9:00 in the morning and 4:00 to 6:00 in the evening. At other times, they can travel freely. Elevated roads, some river-crossing bridges, and tunnels prohibit the passage of small passenger cars with out-of-town license plates, small passenger cars with temporary license plates, unoccupied taxis, and small passenger cars driven by drivers in the probationary period (except Saturdays, Sundays, and national holidays). Below are the road usage guidelines for restricted vehicles: 1. Passing through restricted intersections: Vehicles with restricted tail numbers can go straight through intersections connected to restricted roads but cannot turn left or right onto restricted roads. 2. Emergency assistance: In case of emergencies such as medical emergencies, you can seek help from traffic police on duty at the intersection. If you receive a ticket, you can report the actual situation to the Chengdu Traffic Management Bureau. 3. No borrowing of bus lanes: During restricted hours, the second ring road will reserve bus lanes, allowing only buses, registered school buses, and company transport vehicles. Restricted vehicles are not allowed to use these lanes.
