#21 Re: New rumor about Beijing motorbike ban inside 6th ring05-16-2014, 09:56 AM
Yea.
U can often save urself some trouble just by being nice, polite, smiling and 1st addressing the officer with a kind "Jǐngguān Nǐ hǎo!".
Still, there's always the occasional stubborn racist cop to make all ur efforts in respect & niceness vain.
Once I got billed 1 point and 50 RMB for:
- "illegal lane crossing" while crossing a right turn lane from a sidewalk till a straight going lane where I stopped at the red light; in an effort to not block right turners.
- "failure to present technical control sticker" while riding a brand new bike.
It's not a big penalty, but it sure feels unfair to see countless trikes and chariots taking every available wrong way in and around that crossway in total impunity while he prints ur bill after u spent so much time, money and energy getting fully legit.
Since then I know it's not because u have valid D/L, insurance, plate, latest technical control sticker and a helmet like this SmileyHelmet.jpg that u should stop.
If he's running towards u blowing his lungs out through his whistle, he's probably in for the kill.
I only stop if I'm 101% sure I did nothing wrong AND if he's calmly walking towards me.
Any other situation; i'm not gonna let him invent a way to fine me again. Left, right, left, Bzzzzt!!!
I know it's bad but TIC and that's how it's done here.Le siècle ou nous vivons est un siècle pourri. - Tout n'est que lâcheté, bassesse, - Les plus grands assassins vont aux plus grandes messes - Et sont des plus grands rois les plus grands favoris. - Hommage de l'auteur à ceux qui l'ont compris, - Et merde aux autres.

Here is a detailed post (with maps) over on motorfans about motorcycle restrictions in Beijing ...

Looks like it is the 6th Ring Road for non-Beijing bikes.

05-17-2014, 07:29 AMCorrection to my previous post: non-Beijing bikes used to be allowed outside the 4th Ring which gave them the same status as Jing B plated bikes. So quite a big blow for motorcyclists from outside of Beijing wanting to visit the city.

I got my new jing B plate for new bike in Mentougou, I am told now that as of May, no longer need (issued) front plate. Anyone else heard or experienced this already?

Yes, that is correct - the front plate is no longer required. There have also been a few other minor traffic-rule changes affecting motorcycles (e.g., the CCC requirements noted on another thread). There are also rumors of additional, and more significant, changes coming in the Fall. However, as everyone learns after a few years of riding around Beijing, there are ALWAYS lots of rumors about what is coming.
