1 Answers
The differences between yellow license plates and blue license plates on 4.2-meter trucks are as follows: 1. Applicable vehicle types differ: Yellow plates are suitable for: large vehicles such as tanker trucks, cargo trucks, semi-trailer tractors, trailers (full trailers or semi-trailers not permanently attached to the tractor), and cargo trucks with a load capacity exceeding 1.0 tons. Blue plates are suitable for: vehicles with a length ≤6 meters, registered load capacity ≤2 tons, and total mass ≤4.5 tons. 2. Driver's license requirements differ: A Class B license is required to drive yellow-plate vehicles, while a Class C license suffices for blue-plate vehicles. 3. Toll standards differ: On highways, blue-plate vehicles incur lower tolls, whereas yellow-plate vehicles generally face higher charges due to factors like size and weight. 4. Annual inspection intervals differ: Yellow-plate vehicles require quarterly inspections, while blue-plate vehicles undergo biennial inspections. 5. Restricted zones differ: Blue-plate vehicles can drive freely in cities, whereas yellow-plate vehicles are subject to time-based restrictions and require permits. 6. Operating permit requirements differ: Blue-plate vehicles do not need an operating permit, while yellow-plate vehicles must obtain one, with differing conditions for passenger and freight transport.
