What Happens If a Motor Vehicle Is Not Scrapped Upon Reaching Its Retirement Period?
1 Answers
The consequences of not scrapping a motor vehicle upon reaching its retirement period are as follows: 1. If a motor vehicle reaches its retirement period and is not scrapped, it will be forcibly scrapped, with a fine ranging from 200 to 2,000 yuan, and the driver's license will be revoked. The driver can only apply for a new license two years after the revocation. 2. When attempting to purchase a new vehicle, the owner will not be able to register it. The motor vehicle scrapping process is as follows: 1. The vehicle owner must present their identity proof, vehicle registration certificate, vehicle license, and license plate to the motor vehicle dismantling plant's business department to fill out the "Motor Vehicle Suspension, Resumption/Cancellation Registration Application Form" or wait for notification at the license management counter for fee payment and license plate collection. 2. Apply at the registration acceptance counter, where a "Vehicle Scrapping Notice" will be issued for vehicles that have reached their retirement period. For vehicles that have not reached their retirement period, the motor vehicle inspection counter will determine if they meet the scrapping standards and issue a "Vehicle Scrapping Notice" if applicable. 3. The vehicle owner can choose a qualified recycling company to dismantle the vehicle by presenting the "Notice." 4. The recycling company will dismantle the vehicle and take photos after verifying the "Notice." The engine must be separated from the vehicle, the engine block must be broken, and the frame (chassis) must be cut. 5. The vehicle owner must submit the "Change Form," "XX Province Updated Vehicle Technical Appraisal Form," "Scrapped Vehicle Recycling Certificate," and photos of the dismantled vehicle to the motor vehicle inspection counter for verification and signature. The license plate and certificate will be collected, and the scrapping registration will be processed according to regulations after approval.
