Is Dongguan Road and Bridge Fee Legal?

The Notice of the General Office of the State Council on Issues Concerning the Management of Motor Vehicle Charges and the Rectification of Road Stations clearly stipulates that it is strictly forbidden to evenly distribute vehicle tolls to all vehicles for compulsory collection, and it is strictly forbidden to collect fees for hitchhiking in the regular inspection of motor vehicles.

According to the "Regulations on the Management of Toll Roads", managers of toll roads are not allowed to forcibly collect or collect vehicle tolls for a certain period of time by other improper means, that is to say, road and bridge fees cannot collect annual fees at all.

In fact, the annual vehicle fee in Dongguan starts from 1992. Although there was controversy from the beginning, the local court in Dongguan also pointed out in a judgment of 20 1 1 that paying annual tickets should not be a prerequisite for annual inspection, but in fact, we also see that the practice of compulsory and bundled fees in Dongguan has not been eliminated. Why can illegal things continue? First, it should be because the person who did it has the power. Second, it should be because the people who do it have interests behind them. What are these benefits? Should power serve it? This is actually the most worthy of our consideration in this incident. (Quoted from CCTV Focus Talk Show)
