Will removing 'Brilliance BMW' result in a fine?
2 Answers
Removing 'Brilliance BMW' is considered illegal and may result in a fine. Here is some extended information about Brilliance Auto. 1. Introduction: Brilliance is a legendary enterprise and a pioneer in establishing new models for Chinese independent brands. The group is currently involved in various fields, including complete vehicles, new energy, and intelligent manufacturing. 2. Subsidiary Brands: It owns three independent brands—Zhonghua, Jinbei, and Huasong—as well as two joint venture brands, Brilliance BMW and Brilliance Renault, covering passenger vehicles and commercial vehicles across all segments. Among them, Zhonghua, a national brand, has helped establish the reputation of Chinese automotive brands alongside other domestic brands like Chery and BYD, earning a good reputation both domestically and internationally.
Last time my buddy got his new car and immediately pried off the 'Brilliance BMW' lettering, only to get pulled over by traffic police and fined 200 yuan. The regulations are crystal clear - Article 57 of the 'Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations' states that unauthorized alteration of vehicle brand identifiers is illegal. These emblems are like a car's ID number; tampering with them affects vehicle identification. According to traffic management data I checked, there were over 30,000 such modification penalties nationwide last year. While some think it's just removing a badge, getting caught means fines ranging from 200 to 500 yuan, and possibly even having your vehicle license impounded. I'd advise modification enthusiasts to go through proper filing procedures - getting a ticket over a few letters just isn't worth it.
