What is the penalty for driving a restricted vehicle for a whole day?
1 Answers
Penalties for driving a restricted vehicle for a whole day vary by region as there is no nationwide standard. Typically, penalties for violating the restriction include a warning, a fine, or a 3-point deduction on the driver's license. Some regions only issue warnings, some only impose fines, and others both fine and deduct points. The number of penalties for violating the restriction within a single day also differs by region. Some areas impose only one penalty per day (e.g., Xi'an), while others allow cumulative penalties (e.g., Chengdu). The vehicle restriction policy, based on license plate numbers, is a long-term measure to ensure smooth traffic and improve air quality. It aims to alleviate traffic congestion caused by rapid vehicle growth and reduce vehicle emissions, keeping air pollution levels within a reasonable range.
