Why are pickup trucks restricted in China?

Pickup is a transliteration of English pick-up This kind of car is also called a car license. As the name implies, a car is also a truck, which is the kind of car in front of and behind the cab that we occasionally see in American movies.

First of all, talk about the characteristics of pickup trucks. The pickup truck adopts the open truck compartment with the front and cab, which has an American freedom and wildness. The pickup truck itself has the comfort of a car when driving, and at the same time it can maintain strong power to add a lot of color to it.

Being able to have spacious cargo space is a major feature of pickup trucks that cannot be ignored. Compared with the car, sacrificing the space gained in the back seat is to drive more things when one or two people can travel and drive and there is not so much space in the car.

In addition, it has to be said that the structural characteristics of the pickup truck itself can also adapt to different bad road conditions, and there is no need to worry about the goods or large equipment behind it being hit. Therefore, pickup trucks are widely loved in many places and regions, and are not only sought after by many enthusiasts.

So after the pickup truck itself, let's look at why pickup trucks are restricted in China.

Dong Tang, executive vice president of China Automobile Association, China Automobile News, explained the reason why it is difficult to get a pickup truck into the city. In short, pickup trucks are difficult to manage in cities, which may increase the difficulty of urban traffic management.

In fact, China's Road Traffic Law does not prohibit pickup trucks from entering the city, but gives local traffic control departments the right to manage pickup trucks. Therefore, the local transportation department can have the right to prevent trucks from entering the city.

In view of the difficulty of truck management, many cities, especially big cities, have directly banned trucks, including pickup trucks. Among the capital cities of China, only Fuzhou, Lhasa, Xining and Guangzhou are lax in the management of trucks, while other big cities are boycotting trucks.

Many people will ask, you can also see trucks in your own city. Why are pickup trucks restricted? Trucks and trucks can naturally be strictly managed according to their respective management regulations, but pickup trucks can meet the loading conditions and personal use at the same time.

Many car fans don't regard pickup trucks as trucks, but as interesting personal travel tools, but at the same time, many people use pickup trucks to load and transport goods conveniently. This makes the urban management of pickup trucks very difficult. The ulterior secret of banning pickup trucks is as loud as tricycles and motorcycles in some cities.
