Strengthening management of four-wheeled electric vehicles.

(Baothanhhoa.vn) - According to statistics, there are currently 5 businesses providing passenger transport services using 4-wheeled electric vehicles in Sam Son City, with a total of over 470 vehicles. During the peak tourist season, in addition to other passenger transport services such as taxis and Grab, 4-wheeled electric vehicles are a popular choice for many tourists.

Traffic police officers are raising awareness and reminding owners of four-wheeled electric vehicles of the regulations.

Besides meeting the transportation needs of residents and tourists, this type of service has still had many shortcomings and limitations in recent times, such as: stopping, parking, picking up and dropping off passengers in unauthorized locations causing traffic congestion, soliciting customers, carrying more passengers than permitted, speeding and reckless driving, etc.

From July 1st, 2025, the operation of four-wheeled electric vehicles will comply with the new regulations of the Law on Road Traffic Order and Safety and Government Decree 158/2024/ND-CP. Therefore, starting in early April 2025, the Traffic Police Department, in coordination with the police in the wards, organized awareness campaigns for units and businesses with vehicles participating in tourism services, requiring them to commit to ensuring that their vehicles comply with regulations on registration and technical safety certification. Electric vehicles are only permitted to operate until June 30th, 2025, pending the installation of speed limit signs of 30 km/hour. Electric vehicles carrying more passengers than permitted are strictly prohibited, as are passenger vehicles stopping and parking arbitrarily, causing traffic obstruction.
