With the rapid development of the freight industry, the state is paying increasing attention to it. The logistics and transport industry is booming, and freight policies and regulations are multiplying, affecting every light- and heavy-truck driver. But many drivers still say they are bewildered and do not know where to find this information. Today, as Chengli commercial vehicles approach production launch in 2019, Chengli summarizes nine new policies so that light- and heavy-truck drivers can know them in advance and be prepared — that way, fewer troubles at work…… Enough talk, let's get right to it!
1. Non-compliant vehicle transport trucks banned from roads
According to the Opinions on Further Improving the Work of Rectifying Illegal Truck Modification and Over-limit/Overload Transport, jointly issued by the Ministry of Transport, National Development and Reform Commission, Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, Ministry of Public Security, and General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine, double-deck vehicle transport trucks are strictly prohibited from entering expressways, non-compliant vehicle transport trucks are comprehensively banned, and standard freight vehicle types are promoted. Drivers should avoid overloading; safe driving is what matters most.
2. Beijing: China III diesel trucks banned city-wide all day
Starting December 1, 2018, except for three categories — Beijing-plated China III diesel trucks, out-of-town China III diesel trucks transporting production and living supplies to Beijing, and out-of-town China III diesel trucks transporting fresh agricultural products as whole vehicles — Beijing will ban China III emission standard diesel cargo vehicles from driving on roads within the Beijing administrative region throughout the day. Truck drivers in or frequently traveling to Beijing must keep this in mind.
3. Cross-region annual inspection: commission inspection procedures canceled
To further deepen motor vehicle inspection reform, this year trucks nationwide can undergo cross-region annual inspection without an authorization letter (except dangerous goods transport vehicles, vehicle transport trucks and low-bed semi-trailers). That is, starting this year, cross-province/cross-city annual inspection no longer requires a commission inspection procedure, saving considerable trouble.
4. New Motor Vehicle Operation Safety Technical Conditions take effect
The new Motor Vehicle Operation Safety Technical Conditions include provisions that dangerous goods transport vehicles must be equipped with disc brakes; dangerous goods transport vehicles and trailers must have air suspension; natural gas vehicles must be fitted with static grounding straps; China III vehicles in many regions are already banned, with strict checks on vehicle identification numbers and body reflective markings.
Note also that reflective markings must be applied properly: rear reflective markings should start and end with white units, and the corners of the rear of the cargo box should be white units. Side markings may start with red units, but the last unit near the rear of the vehicle must be white. Horizontally applied reflective markings indicate the rear width of the vehicle, while vertically applied markings on both edges indicate the rear height.
5. Mandatory secondary maintenance inspection canceled starting 2018
The Action Plan for Promoting the Healthy and Stable Development of the Road Freight Industry (2018-2020) states that vehicle inspection and testing will be simplified, the mandatory online inspection for secondary maintenance of operating freight vehicles will be canceled, and operators will independently determine the secondary maintenance cycle and organize vehicle maintenance themselves.
6. New rules for demerit points on driving licenses
Helping others handle traffic-camera demerit points requires in-person signing in advance; handling traffic violations for non-personal vehicles through self-service channels requires real-name registration and binding of the corresponding vehicle, and only violations generated after binding can be handled; the practice of getting a violation first and then binding the license to deduct points does not work; and if the car owner presenting for violation handling does not match the photo, severe penalties apply. So drivers must obey traffic rules and not take chances. As year-end approaches, police crackdowns on violations and vehicles will only get stricter — obey the rules and safety first.
7. New Road Transport of Dangerous Goods rules effective December 1
On August 29, 2018, the Ministry of Transport issued the Road Transport of Dangerous Goods Rules, which took effect on December 1, 2018. Compared with the 2004 version, the 2018 version is more standardized, normalized and systematic in the safety management of road dangerous goods transport.
New freight policies across regions
8. All Shandong-Jiangsu expressway provincial-border toll stations to be canceled by year-end
Recently, the Ministry of Transport's Road Network Monitoring and Emergency Response Center held an engineering coordination meeting in Jinan for pilot provinces canceling provincial-border toll stations, attended by the first batch of five pilot provinces and cities: Shandong, Jiangsu, Sichuan, Chongqing and Guizhou. According to the Ministry of Transport's unified deployment, all expressway provincial-border toll stations between Shandong and Jiangsu will be canceled by the end of this year.
9. Special rectification of excessive emissions launched
Pollution prevention work has achieved greater results; consolidating the blue-sky defense and retiring old vehicles are on the agenda. Shandong, Tianjin and other regions started installing DPF (diesel particulate filters) on some China III trucks this year to meet environmental upgrade requirements, and Shenzhen even requires new China V heavy diesel vehicles (except tractors) to install DPF. “Protecting the environment is everyone's responsibility” — drivers must always keep this in mind.
For truck drivers who are constantly on the road, it is essential to know the traffic and freight policies of the places you frequently travel to, and pay attention immediately whenever policy changes. JAC light trucks wish you more worry-free freight!
