What kind of vehicle modifications for RVs are not policed by traffic police?
1 Answers
The notion that traffic police do not regulate RV conversions is incorrect. All vehicle modifications should apply for modification registration with the local vehicle management office where the vehicle is registered. In China, the scope of legal modifications includes wheels, color, partial paintwork (not exceeding 30%), exterior parts (without altering the vehicle's distinctive features), interior (seats cannot be removed), variable valve exhaust systems, anti-collision beams, etc. However, it is still necessary to apply for modification registration where required; otherwise, it may be considered an illegal modification. Vehicle owners must apply for modification registration with the local vehicle management office in the following cases: 1. Changing the vehicle body color; 2. Replacing the engine; 3. Replacing the vehicle body or frame; 4. Replacing the entire vehicle due to quality issues; 5. Changing the use of the vehicle from commercial to non-commercial or vice versa; 6. The vehicle owner's residence moves into or out of the jurisdiction of the vehicle management office.
