Hey, I recently drove across the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge, and it was quite an experience. The vehicles allowed to cross are mainly those with special licenses, like private cars, commercial vehicles, or cross-border buses with Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao plates. Regular cars need to apply for a temporary pass in advance through official channels, submitting documents like vehicle emission compliance certificates, proof of recent manufacturing, and meeting environmental standards. I handled mine online beforehand and brought the vehicle inspection report. There weren’t many cars on the bridge, and the scenery was breathtaking, but remember the speed limits are strictly enforced, so I had to drive a bit slower. I heard older cars or those with high emissions are more likely to be rejected, so newer cars or electric vehicles are recommended. Overall, check the regulations thoroughly before your trip to avoid a wasted journey.
