How does the United States manage official vehicles?

Q: Hello, comrade editor! According to my observation, the management of official cars in some government departments in China is relatively loose, and there are many phenomena such as private use of buses and privileged cars. Can you tell us how to manage official cars in western countries? Anhui reader: Comrade Zhang: Hello! In western countries, the management system of official cars in the United States is more representative. I will introduce some methods of managing official cars in the United States. There are more than 620,000 official vehicles in the United States federal government agencies (except the Department of Defense). There are three sources: one is purchased and equipped by the Federal General Services Agency, the other is rented from social commercial organizations, and the third is rented from the Federal General Services Agency. As the procurement agency and official vehicle management department of the federal government, the Federal General Affairs Department has built the largest non-military vehicle fleet in the United States, with more than 2,654,380,000 vehicles of various types, most of which are leased to federal agencies for use. In order to ensure public safety, reduce administrative expenses and put an end to corruption and waste, the federal government strictly manages buses and does not allow buses to have privileges. Federal employees must first abide by the traffic laws and regulations of governments at all levels when driving buses, and the fines for violations shall be borne by individuals; At the same time, we must abide by the special regulations of the federal government on buses, such as: don't drive buses to and from work unless the unit thinks this behavior is really necessary and authorizes it in writing according to the law; It is strictly forbidden to use the bus for private use, not to carry relatives and friends, not to go to restaurants, entertainment centers and other non-official activities; Refueling and maintenance at designated gas stations and repair shops purchased by the government; Driving without texting, and so on. The Federal General Affairs Department has developed an official vehicle management information system, which is connected with designated gas stations and repair shops to obtain real-time information such as vehicle mileage, fuel consumption, maintenance items and expenses, so as to prevent drivers from seeking illegitimate interests. Many buses are equipped with global positioning system (GPS) to monitor the driving route and parking place of vehicles, avoid uneconomical driving and put an end to private use of buses. The public has the right to report bus violations. After receiving the report, the Federal Ministry of General Affairs will notify the person in charge of the vehicle user unit, order it to organize an investigation, and impose penalties according to the actual situation, or submit it to the Ministry of Justice for legal disposal. According to the provisions of the United States code, federal government workers who use or approve the use of buses in violation of regulations will be suspended for one month until they are fired. In order to facilitate public identification and supervision, the federal government implements logo management on buses, such as spraying special colors and patterns on police cars, marking "for official use only" and the names of subordinate departments on military vehicles. However, the most common and effective method is to issue government-specific vehicle licenses. There are two kinds of federal government bus license plates: one is the vehicle used by the federal general affairs agency, and the other is the vehicle leased to federal agencies; The other is vehicles purchased by various federal agencies. The license plates of these two kinds of government vehicles are different, but both of them have signs that are very easy for the public to identify, with the words "American government" or "for official use only" printed on them. Vehicles purchased and rented by federal agencies are registered and managed in the federal government bus registration system of the Federal General Affairs Agency, including the production, issuance and replacement of license plates. The federal government bus registration system is connected with government law enforcement departments at all levels through the "international justice and public safety network" to help them strengthen the supervision of government vehicles and ensure public safety. The United States stipulates that federal government buses must use special license plates according to regulations, but there are three exceptions to applying for general social vehicle licenses from state government vehicles or traffic management departments. The first is a limited exception, that is, the person in charge of a federal agency believes that publishing certain information on the vehicle license plate will pose a threat to the security of the agency or adversely affect its completion of its duties and tasks. In this case, the applied ordinary license is valid for 3 years, and a new application must be made after the expiration. The second is unlimited exception, that is, vehicles that are mainly used to perform special tasks such as criminal investigation, law enforcement, intelligence, national security, etc., and exposing their identities will hinder the execution of tasks. The third is a special exception, that is, the special car of the president and the head of the federal administrative organ as stipulated by law. Federal agencies that use ordinary license plates on buses must report to the federal general affairs department. Because the laws and regulations on car license plates vary from state to state, some stipulate that vehicles must be installed at the front and rear, while others only need to be installed at the rear. However, federal regulations stipulate that license plates must be installed before and after the federal government bus, and only two-wheeled motor vehicles or trailers can be installed at the rear.
