Original title: Reporter confirms: “Private cars” hide three major risks

Risk one

This “Jing brand” is not a Jing brand that can be used at home.

The reporter called 12123 to consult the vehicle management office. The customer service staff told the reporter that in order to license a special work vehicle, you should first submit an application to the unit’s competent department and obtain the approval certificate from the relevant department. “Special work vehicles have relevant usage requirements and cannot be used as household passenger cars. “

The reporter inquired that as early as 2018, there was a court ruling involving “private cars” – in September of that year, the Fengtai market supervision department conducted an on-site inspection of a company’s business premises in Beijing and found that the sign on the front of the store had the words “SAIC.” Maxus specializes in Beijing brand business”, and a red banner with the words “SAIC Maxus will give you a Beijing brand when you buy a car directly under your name” is hung in the store, and there are also “G10 wholeheartedly for you”. The MPV car purchase will give you a Beijing brand, and it can be registered under your name. The “Beijing Blue Brand” in the public account’s name will not affect the lottery.”

The regulatory authorities believed that the above-mentioned publicity behavior was suspected of false under the archyde news Law, and launched an investigation on it on the same day. Subsequent evidence collection revealed that the vehicles sold by the store were “light non-cargo special operation vehicles”. This “Beijing brand” has a different meaning from the “Beijing brand” under Beijing’s passenger car indicator control policy, and there is deliberate confusion of concepts to interfere with consumer understanding. Awareness and suspicion of making wrong car buying decisions. After the company appealed against the administrative penalty, the court ruled in favor of the original penalty, which imposed a fine of 1 million yuan on the company.

Risk two

Each time a vehicle is inspected, professional equipment must be reinstalled.

During the visit, the reporter noticed that the “small special car” belonging to the special work vehicle “looks” the same as an ordinary passenger car.

According to the industry standard “Motor Vehicle Types for Road Traffic Management” (GA802-2019), vehicles are divided into passenger vehicles, cargo vehicles, and special work vehicles. Among them, special operation vehicles refer to vehicles equipped with special equipment or appliances that are designed and manufactured for special engineering (including health and medical) operations, such as road sweepers, sewage suction trucks, inspection vehicles, power supply vehicles, communication vehicles, Television cars, blood collection cars, physical examination and medical cars, etc., but do not include cars equipped with special equipment or appliances and with more than 9 seats (including the driver’s seat) (except fire trucks). The specifications of special work vehicles are divided into heavy, medium, light and micro.

However, the reporters saw many vehicles at two sales stores that had no engineering equipment at all. The layout of the vehicles was the same as that of ordinary passenger cars, and no work vehicle logo was visible on the bodies. A staff member said that they removed the original engineering devices on the car, and some added seats. They only need to restore the original appearance during the vehicle inspection. They also provide vehicle inspection services, which only cost a few hundred yuan more. Labor costs.

In fact, there is a risk that the modified “special car” will fail the vehicle inspection. At the Erqing Motor Vehicle Inspection Site in Beijing, an inspector heard a reporter inquire about “small special vehicles” and kindly reminded: “If you haven’t bought one yet, I suggest you don’t buy it. This type of vehicle must have special equipment and license plates during vehicle inspection. What is there when it leaves the factory must be what is there when the vehicle is inspected. In many cases, it may not be inspected, so what should I do if I buy it and throw it away?” The reporter learned that light non-cargo special work vehicles are managed according to trucks in Beijing. The inspection shall be conducted once a year within 10 years; if it reaches and exceeds 10 years, the inspection shall be conducted once every 6 months.

In addition, the “Road Traffic Safety Law of the People’s Republic of China” clearly stipulates that no unit or individual may assemble a motor vehicle or change the registered structure, structure or characteristics of a motor vehicle without authorization. If a “small car” removes special equipment or adds seats and modifies it for use on the road, it may also be investigated and punished by law enforcement agencies.

Risk three

No movement within the Fifth Ring Road from 6:00 to 23:00

Is the “small private car” really able to travel unhindered in Beijing as the merchants say? A salesperson said that they have been selling this kind of car for a long time, and customers who live and work in the central city can drive it normally. Of course, they still have to abide by the traffic restrictions on the last number.

However, when the reporter consulted the traffic control department, the staff introduced that special operation vehicles are managed as trucks in this city. There is no vehicle purchase quota to purchase the vehicle. When driving on the road, you must abide by the prohibition and restriction regulations for trucks. From 6:00 to 23:00 every day, the Fifth Ring Road Roads within the road (excluding) are closed to traffic.

The reporter’s inquiry found that some car owners who are concerned about “small special vehicles” also posted on social platforms the prohibition and restriction signs for special operation vehicles installed on some road sections in Haidian District and Tongzhou District, and they have worries about purchasing such vehicles.

Reporter’s Notes

“Stop” the disorderly and indiscriminate sales of special operation vehicles as soon as possible

What puzzles reporters is how special operation vehicles such as inspection vehicles, power supply vehicles, and communication vehicles that should be equipped with special equipment or appliances for special engineering (including health and medical) operations can be transformed into ordinary transportation tools. How many years has it existed in the Beijing automobile sales market?

In order to alleviate traffic congestion, at the end of 2010, Beijing announced the implementation of measures to control the number of passenger cars and control the growth of vehicles through a lottery. Special operation vehicles are “not doing their job properly” and are undoubtedly taking advantage of policy loopholes. Government departments should strictly manage special operation vehicles in various industries, including quantity control, approval processes, use supervision, etc., to plug the leakage of special vehicle license plates. Law enforcement departments should intensify investigation and punishment, warn and publicize, and punish special operation vehicles that violate the prohibition and restriction regulations; market supervision departments should also strictly investigate merchants suspected of false propaganda to avoid property losses to citizens; relevant departments should find ways to manage special operations Work vehicles, for example, are issued special license plates that are different from ordinary passenger vehicles to facilitate supervision and management.

The disorderly development of special operation vehicles “bringing Beijing brand when buying a vehicle” should be curbed as soon as possible. Otherwise, more administrative costs, social costs, and economic costs may need to be spent in the future to solve the problems accumulated in the early stage.
