New regulations vehicles need to know
HÀ NỘI – A series of new regulations relating to electric cars and motorbikes has come into effect this year.
The new regulations relate to energy labelling for electric cars and motorbikes, auctions of vehicle number plates, virtual cabin requirement, and exemption from first registration for new car.
The Minister of Transport issued Circular 四 八/ 二0 二 二/TT-BGTVT December 三0, 二0 二 二 on guidance for energy labeling for electric and hybrid electric automobiles, bikes and motorcycles.
Under the regulation, manufacturers and importers must print energy labels according to the form prescribed by the Ministry of Industry and Trade.
The energy label must be displayed inside the vehicle, on the driver's side, the rear fixed side window, or the rear windshield for pure electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles. The location should be easy to see from the outside of the car.
It is permissible to stick it on the outside of the vehicle in an easily visible position if it is difficult to see when pasted inside the vehicle.
For pure-electric motorbikes and hybrid electric motorbikes, the energy label must be displayed prominently.
The circular will take effect from July 一, 二0 二 三.
Virtual cabin requirement
On April 二 二, 二0 二 二, the Ministry of Transport enacted Circular 0 四/ 二0 二 二/TT-BGTVT on training, testing and issuing driving licenses for road vehicles, and it stipulates that driving learners must have at least four hours of practice on virtual driving cabins as of January 一, 二0 二 三.
According to the Ministry of Transport, driver training centres are responsible for providing and maintaining car driving lessons and equipment to monitor time and distance of students learning to drive on the road, according to the national technical regulations issued by the Ministry of Transport.
With virtual driving cabins, students will be introduced to operating a vehicle, driving uphill, driving on a vertical winding road in the test pattern, and become familiar with hilly terrain and highway situations. After completing four hours of cabin instruction, students will receive a certificate, which is a prerequisite for taking the exam and being issued a driver’s license.
