The license plate is the ID card of the car
Cars must have license plates on to be on the road
Because of the importance of license plates
So
The traffic police punish the illegal behavior of the license plate very strongly
Anyone who uses a license plate in violation of the law will be severely punished
One less screw, 12 points deducted!
According to the latest notice of the Traffic Management Bureau of the Guangdong Provincial Public Security Department, all motor vehicle number plates newly produced since March 1, 2016 (except for the front number plate of three-wheeled vehicles and the rear number plate of motorcycles) have a normative standard, which stipulates that each vehicle should be fixed according to the number of mounting holes in each number plate frame.
That is to say, after 2016, each license plate has 4 mounting holes, and each hole needs to be equipped with screws, 4 in front and behind each, a total of 8. If you have less than 8 screws when you are on the card, once you are checked, you will face a penalty of 12 points!
Basis of punishment
According to Annex IV "Scoring Points for Road Traffic Safety Violations" in the Decision of the Ministry of Public Security on Amendments (also known as Order No. 139 of the Ministry of Public Security), which came into effect on April 1, 2016:
Where a motor vehicle on the road does not hang a motor vehicle number plate, or deliberately obscures, defaces, or fails to install a motor vehicle number plate in accordance with regulations, 12 points are deducted at a time.
Why does the dmstic only give 2 screws?
After the new car lands on the site of the vehicle management office to complete the self-selected number plate, because the license plate needs to have a production process, the vehicle management office will first issue a temporary license plate, and most of the official license plates are installed by mail to the owner. At this time, many careful car owners found that why are there only 2 screws mailed by the car management office?
First of all, for some special models, the installation of the license plate is not the position of the front and back center, I believe that everyone has seen the installation position of the license plate of the off-road vehicle, which is the left or right side of the side, after all, there are some off-road vehicles that put spare tires in the rear.
Secondly, the pre-2016 models actually have many cars with only 2 screw holes, so it is not too much of a problem for the car management office to only give two screws. And according to the national standard at that time, GA 804-2008 "Special Fixed Sealing Device for Motor Vehicle Number Plate", which stipulates that each number plate should be fixed with at least 2 fixed sealing devices.
That is to say, if the traffic police are handled according to humanization, if the vehicle number plate before 2016 has only 2 screw holes, it will not be fined after verifying the situation.
What should I do if I find that the license plate is missing a screw?
Obviously, there are 4 screw holes, a total of 8 before and after, but only 4 screws are given, which belongs to the leakage of the car pipe. Car owners who encounter such a situation should bring a driving license and go to the local vehicle management office to make up for it free of charge.
If you go to the car management office to apply for reloading after the screws are broken or loose, you need to pay your own fee. The cost of buying screws is different in each region, generally a screw is about 5 yuan.
One thing we should pay special attention to is that the screws must be repaired at the local vehicle management office, because the screws have the logo of each place, so the patches in the field are not the same. If the traffic police find that the logo on the screw is different from the license plate, 12 points will also be deducted!
summary
If the car produced before March 2016 really has only 2 screw holes, only 2 will not be punished. However, if it is a car produced after March 2016, there are 2 screw holes on it, and it is indeed punishable. Therefore, we must check whether the screws are leaking, damaged and loose in time, otherwise once they are found to be 12 points, they will be deducted at once.
