Starting from May 1st, Chongqing’s pickup trucks will be fully relaxed – “fully lifting the ban” for Chongqing residents
On the eve of May Day, Chongqing citizens successively received and reposted a WeChat message, which quickly exploded in Chongqing citizens’ circles of friends. The general content is as follows: From May 1, 2020, on Pickup trucks with Chongqing license plates registered in Chongqing have relaxed restrictions on the passage of pickup trucks throughout the city. This is the first municipality in my country where pickup trucks can travel smoothly.
This news made Chongqing citizens very excited, and they once again felt the pride of being Chongqing people.

This "comprehensive relaxation" of Chongqing pickup trucks is almost equivalent to "comprehensive lifting of the ban"
On April 29, the "Chongqing Traffic Patrol Police" WeChat public account was released Posted a WeChat message "Good news, to practice people's livelihood policing, the city's pickup truck traffic management has been fully relaxed", saying that "pickup truck traffic management restrictions will be relaxed citywide from May 1, 2020." What everyone needs to note is that this time it is a "comprehensive relaxation" rather than a "comprehensive lifting of the ban", which means "relaxation and relaxation" on the original basis, but the "restrictions" still exist.
First of all, there are restrictions on vehicle types. The so-called pickup truck here refers to a pickup truck that meets the "Multi-Purpose Truck" standard of the Ministry of Public Security's "Road Traffic Management Motor Vehicle Types" - that is, it has a long body and cab structure, and an approved passenger capacity of ≦5 people (including the driver) , a truck with a cab height ≦2100mm, a height above the ground of the cargo box panel (cargo box) ≦1500mm, and a maximum design total mass ≦3.5 tons, or a vehicle whose registered vehicle type is a light multi-purpose truck. As long as any of the above conditions are met. For example, the Ford F series of American muscle pickup trucks that everyone is familiar with, although the ground clearance of the top of the cargo box panel has exceeded 1500mm for some models, as long as the registered vehicle type is a light multi-purpose truck, it should still be classified as " "Pickup truck" category.
Secondly, management restrictions have been imposed on the relaxed passage, which only applies to pickup trucks with Chongqing license plates registered within Chongqing City. Pickup trucks with non-Chongqing license plates will still be allowed to pass in accordance with the current truck traffic restrictions.
Third, administrative restrictions have been placed on comprehensive relaxation. For pickup trucks in the main urban area, as long as they are registered online, except for the morning and evening peak hours on weekdays (7:00-9:30 and 16:30-19:30), Yu'ao Bridge, Niujiaotuo Jialing River Bridge, Huanghuayuan Bridge, and Shiban are not allowed to pass Except for the Po Yangtze River Bridge and its double-track bridge, other roads are open to traffic 24 hours a day, and are no longer restricted by time or road sections; for pickup trucks in non-main urban areas, there is no need to apply for any traffic vouchers, and there are no traffic restrictions except under special circumstances. That is to achieve true "comprehensive lifting of the ban."
Moreover, one thing that needs special attention is that due to the implementation of high-emission vehicle driving restrictions in the main urban area of ????Chongqing, pickup trucks that fall under high-emission standards "high-emission vehicles" refer to the first phase of the national motor vehicle emission standards and Gasoline vehicles below (mainly gasoline vehicles registered before the end of 2005); diesel vehicles below the national phase III motor vehicle emission standards (mainly diesel vehicles registered before the end of 2013). Registration access will no longer be allowed. If a pickup truck has been successfully registered, the system will automatically cancel the registration record and access rights.
Although it seems that there are still some restrictions, for Chongqing citizens, it will basically not have any impact, and it can almost be equated with "comprehensive lifting of the ban."

Why did Chongqing become the first municipality to “lift the ban”?
Chongqing’s “comprehensive relaxation” of pickup trucks is naturally a good thing for Chongqing citizens. But why did Chongqing become the first municipality in the country to “lift the ban”? If you look closely, it actually makes sense.
In August 2016, the Chongqing Municipal Government issued the "Work Plan for Chongqing to Promote Ten Major Consumption Expansion Actions", which clearly stated that it would "launch a pilot program for the release of pickup trucks into the city at an appropriate time." In other words, as early as 4 years ago, Chongqing had already set the tone for “lifting the ban” on pickup trucks.
Afterwards, especially in the past two years, with the growing public demand for "unbanning pickup trucks" and the objective needs of economic development, departments at all levels and local governments have successively issued relevant documents, such as At the end of 2018, the Ministry of Transport issued the "Notice of the General Office of the Ministry of Transport on Cancellation of Road Transport Certificates and Driver Qualification Certificates for Ordinary Freight Vehicles with a Total Mass of 4.5 tons and Below", which clearly states that: local transportation management departments will no longer provide Ordinary freight vehicles of 4.5 tons and below are issued road transport certificates. Vehicles and drivers engaged in general freight transport activities shall not be treated as "operating without a license" or "driving road passenger and freight transport vehicles without obtaining corresponding business qualification certificates." Administrative penalties were imposed on the ground; in April 2019, the National Development and Reform Commission issued the "Implementation Plan for Promoting Renewal and Consumption of Automobiles, Home Appliances, and Consumer Electronics Products to Promote the Development of Circular Economy (2019-2020) (Draft for Comments)". The document stated: Full Give full play to the dual-use functions of pickup trucks and passenger trucks, accelerate the lifting of restrictions on pickup trucks entering cities, expand the scope of pilot areas for pickup trucks entering cities, and expand the pilot areas for pickup trucks entering cities from Hebei and other six provinces to areas with strong market demand. By the end of 2020, prefecture-level and All the following cities have lifted restrictions on pickup trucks entering the city.
Since relevant central departments and citizens have this intention, it is expected that the mountainous city of Chongqing, as the only municipality directly under the Central Government in the southwest, will respond quickly.
In addition to policy guidance, in the author's opinion, there may be the following reasons:
First of all, due to the coldness of the national auto market in the past two years, many upstream and downstream automobile industry chains related to it have All have been affected to varying degrees, and Chongqing, an automobile city with the automobile industry as its main economic development engine, is naturally the first to bear the brunt. Faced with this situation, Chongqing needs to drive the development of the automobile industry through automobile consumption, thereby revitalizing Chongqing's economy;
Secondly, calls for "lifting the ban" on pickup trucks are getting louder, indicating strong market demand. As a mountain city, Chongqing has a particularly strong demand for pickup trucks with strong cargo capacity;
Chongqing introduced the Great Wall Cannon, a passenger pickup truck, to the Great Wall Yongchuan factory for production. In addition to the geographical advantages and strong market demand of Chongqing's mountain city, it also It pays more attention to its geographical advantages - Chongqing is the only municipality directly under the Central Government in Southwest China and an important connection point between the "One Belt and One Road" and the Yangtze River Economic Belt.
Based on the above factors, it is only a matter of time before Chongqing lifts the ban on pickup trucks. All it takes is an opportunity. Now it seems that this opportunity has arrived.

What will the “lifting of the ban” bring to Chongqing?
Now, Chongqing has finally “comprehensively relaxed” restrictions on pickup trucks. So what impact will it have on Chongqing citizens or Chongqing’s economic development?
First, boost automobile consumption. Looking at the overall auto market in 2019, the pickup truck market has grown significantly, and there has been an upgrading of consumption, which has obvious economic effects. Data show that from 2017 to 2020, pickup truck sales in the southwest region accounted for 26%, 25%, 23%, and 28% respectively in the country. It can be clearly seen that the effect of policies in guiding consumption is still very obvious;
Secondly, it improves the quality of life of Chongqing citizens and gives Chongqing citizens another way to have fun. Nowadays, with the improvement of people's living standards and changes in consumption concepts, many citizens hope to buy passenger pickup trucks with higher chassis, larger loading capacity, stronger passability and off-road capabilities, and higher playfulness, such as Great Wall The "instant success" of the gun and the continued rise in sales are the best explanations;
Third, it stimulates the economy. Many citizens hope to own a car that is suitable for both business and IKEA. Nowadays, the emergence of passenger pickup trucks represented by the Great Wall Cannon has given this group of consumers the best choice. It can not only be used as a family car, but also as a family car. It can also be used for daily travel or travel, and for commercial purposes such as moving and loading goods. It can not only solve the employment problem under the current situation, but also be used for commercial purposes, promote market vitality and stimulate the local economy.
Written at the end: At the beginning of 2020, in response to "pickup trucks entering the city", the Chongqing Municipal Public Security Bureau Traffic Patrol Corps launched 5 measures including electronic truck passes. Now a few months have passed, and it has finally been carried out on this basis. It was refined and finally implemented, and some regulations were more open than originally. What an open city is, this is it! What is a service-oriented government—Chongqing!
