Low-speed four-wheeled electric vehicles are also called old scooters, whenever you see a content that introduces four-wheeled electric vehicles, there are people discussing in the comment area, whether it is a driver's license, and there are often netizens who ask this question in private messages, then, small connoisseurs today will explain at one time what common problems about low-speed four-wheeled electric vehicles, hoping to help you.
As the elderly with a low-speed four-wheeled electric vehicle or not to drive a license, in fact, depends on whether it is a motor vehicle, according to the provisions of the Road Traffic Law, if it is a motor vehicle on the road, then, the driver of the vehicle must hold a license for the driver, let's take a look at the first common problem, the four-wheeled electric vehicle used by the elderly belongs to the motor vehicle?
Four-wheeled electric vehicles are motor vehicles and require a driver's license to get on the road
Four-wheeled electric vehicles belong to motor vehicles, therefore, it needs a driver's license on the road, and judging that it belongs to motor vehicles can actually be clarified in 2 aspects;
Aspect 1: The attributes of the vehicle are either non-motorized vehicles or motor vehicles, and the definition of motor vehicles according to the "Technical Conditions for the Safe Operation of Motor Vehicles" is: road vehicles driven by power units with two or three wheels, but do not include vehicles that meet the provisions of the national standard for electric bicycles; and "Electric Bicycle Safety Technical Specifications" vehicles refer to vehicles with a speed of less than 25 km / h and a weight of less than 55 kg, which point here, four-wheeled electric vehicles do not meet, therefore, it belongs to the "motor vehicle".
Aspect 2: In June 2021, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology issued the "Technical Conditions for Pure Electric Passenger Vehicles (Draft for Comment)", which clarified that low-speed four-wheeled electric vehicles are the identity of "micro pure electric passenger cars", and low-speed four-wheeled electric vehicles have also become a member of the ranks of electric vehicles, so it belongs to "motor vehicles".
According to these 2 bases, it can be seen that the old scooter such as a low-speed four-wheeled electric vehicle has the identity of a motor vehicle, therefore, it needs a driver's license, but most of the vehicles on the road at present are actually not listed in the "Road Motor Vehicle Manufacturers and Products" directory, strictly speaking, they do not have the qualifications of motor vehicles, so now many places must ban this kind of old scooters that do not meet the qualifications of motor vehicles and are not non-motorized vehicles.
Should low-speed four-wheeled electric vehicles be banned?
Then, the second topic comes, as motor vehicles that should belong to the motor vehicle, but because they do not meet the standards, they are not recognized by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, whether they should be banned, the view of small experts, they should not be banned.
Reason 1 should not be banned: low-speed four-wheeled electric vehicles are the travel tools of the elderly, and the elderly are one of the main groups of the population, the National Health Commission released the 2020 population data on October 15, 2021, more than 260 million people over the age of 60 in the mainland, such a huge group of people, they need to walk tools, directly ban the old scooters, will cause inconvenience to many elderly people.
Reason 2 that should not be banned: Of course, there must be people who say that low-speed four-wheeled electric vehicles have been banned, and the elderly can change other means of transportation to travel, but in fact, the old scooter actually has a certain irreplaceability, it is simple to operate, the price is relatively cheap, the car threshold is low, the ride is comfortable and other advantages, making it difficult to find more suitable alternatives.
Therefore, there are these 2 reasons in that low-speed four-wheeled electric vehicles are actually necessary to exist, should not be completely banned and banned, and, from the current situation, the relevant departments are also people-oriented, and there is no intention to ban it.
Proposed by the National Development and Reform Commission, the Automotive Standard Committee centralized, and the Automotive Technology research center revised the "Technical Conditions for Pure Electric Passenger Vehicles" for the main drafters, which clarified the identity of low-speed electric vehicles and gave them a "micro pure electric passenger car" identity, that is, to let such low-speed four-wheeled electric vehicles have a legal identity and walk out of the gray model ranks for many years.
Of course, the low-speed four-wheeled electric vehicle can be foreseen, it will not be eliminated, but as one of the passenger cars, its road driving, it must belong to the motor vehicle, the driver of its driver also needs a driver's license, this is a nail in the coffin, then, want to legally and compliantly drive a low-speed four-wheeled electric vehicle, you must be prepared to hold a driver's license.
Little Connoisseur Summary:
No one asks whether the electric vehicle that is also a four-wheeled electric vehicle is a motor vehicle, whether a driver's license is required, that is because this type of car has been completely in accordance with the management of motor vehicles from the emergence, but there are many people who have doubts about low-speed four-wheeled electric vehicles, the key reason is that it has appeared for more than ten years, there has been no clear driver's license requirements, leading many people to mistakenly think that it can not be licensed, do not have a driver's license, can be on the road, and even some bad businesses are so publicized.
But with the standardized governance of electric vehicles, now whether it is two-wheeled, three-wheeled, four-wheeled electric vehicles, no matter how much speed, regardless of the age of the driving crowd, it should be a non-motorized vehicle is a non-motorized vehicle, and the motor vehicle needs to be managed according to the standards of motor vehicles, such a trend has been clarified, therefore, as a driver of low-speed four-wheeled electric vehicles, do not hold a fluke mentality, feel that this type of car does not have a driver's license, the threshold is low, so as to choose it.
And for whether this type of model should be banned, it is now also clear, its passenger car identity standards have completed the draft for comments, therefore, it will not be banned, but will meet with everyone in another new identity, at that time, it is the standard passenger car, the owner can also be more assured of legal compliance with the use of it to transport.
So, what do you think about the issue of motor vehicles and driver's licenses for low-speed electric quads, and the question of whether it should be banned? Comments are welcome.
