The total height of vehicles and goods exceeds 4 meters, and it is inevitable that Green Link is being implemented everywhere.

[Truck House Original]“If the semi-trailer height exceeds 4 meters, it will inevitably be green."Recently, many high-speed vehicles have been re-tested one after another. Please consult the local high-speed toll station policy in advance before pulling the green link! In order to avoid losses!

● 　Semi-trailer more than 4 meters high is not free to start execution.

A few days ago, a video released by a card friend showed that on January 1, 2023, at a high-speed toll station in Liaoning, because the container vehicles were too high, Green Pass was not free.

Judging from the feedback from the toll booth staff at that time,Liaoning Provincial Expressway issued regulations to re-define the "definition standard of vehicle outline size"-Unified definition of the over-limit of the total height of vehicles and goods was shortened to 4 meters.

At the same time, there are also feedback from card friends.Yuncheng, Shanxi Province has issued a notice that from 2023, all high-hurdle cars will pull the green pass no more than 4 meters.

Not only that, a card friend from Henan also sent a related message to the author, saying: As far as refrigeration is concerned, the policy that all provinces and cities are not free to exceed 4 meters is being implemented.

In addition to the above-mentioned areas, combined with the feedback from card friends from all over the world, at present, in addition to Liaoning Expressway, some areas such as Hebei, Inner Mongolia, Henan and Hunan also stipulate that the total height of vehicles and goods exceeds 4 meters, so it is inevitable that the green toll will be charged, while some expressway sections in Guangdong and Sichuan are not strict about the height of trucks, and sometimes they can pass for free.

Here, we also remind everyone that recently, especially those who run long distances, we must know in advance whether the size of the vehicle meets the free requirements of the destination Lutong, either from the owner or from the destination high-speed toll station.

If you are uncertain, either take the order carefully or sign the relevant conditions with the owner in advance to avoid unnecessary property losses!

● 　The total height of vehicles and goods exceeds 4 meters, and it is inevitable that the Ministry of Communications of Lutong has made a reply.

Now, let’s go back to the implementation policy itself. Now, many places are inevitably green for refrigerated semi-trailers over 4 meters high. Is there any basis?

As early as 2019, due to the cancellation of provincial toll stations, the Ministry of Communications implemented the "Notice on Further Regulating the National Expressway Entrance Weighing Inspection Work".It is required that the high-speed port shall not detect the outline size of the vehicle.

According to the actual situation, high-speed toll stations are mostly in accordance with Article 54 of the Regulations on the Implementation of Road Traffic Safety (revised in 2017)Heavy and medium-sized trucks, carrying goods, shall not exceed 4 meters from the ground,Vehicles carrying containers shall not exceed 4.2 meters."to perform.

But now it is required that the refrigerated semi-trailer should not exceed 4 meters, is it in line with the policy requirements?

It is worth noting that in August last year, some netizens asked in official website, the Ministry of Communications, "Can container vehicles be transported free of charge when the height is more than 4 meters from the ground?"

At that time, the Ministry of Communications clearly replied"The total height of vehicles and goods is more than 4 meters from the ground, which is an illegal and over-limit transport vehicle and cannot enjoy the green channel policy for the transportation of fresh agricultural products."

This situation is consistent with the problems reflected by the above-mentioned card friends.

● 　The new version of GB1589 has been stipulated. The height limit is uniformly set at 4m.

What is the policy basis for the above problems? This has to mention the GB1589 New Deal.

The official implementation and release date of GB1589－2016 is July 26th, 2016. It is called "Overall Dimensions, Axle Loads and Mass Limits of Cars, Trailers and Automobile Trains". This standard was jointly proposed by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the Ministry of Communications and the Ministry of Public Security. This standard replaces the 2004 version of GB1589 "Overall Dimensions, Axle Loads and Mass Limits of Road Vehicles".

Among them,The new version of GB1589 stipulatesThe limit of semi-trailer length is 13.75 meters, and the maximum limit of semi-trailer length for transporting 45-foot containers is 13.95 meters, and the enclosed type has been reduced from 14.6 meters to the current 13.75 meters.

In addition,New version of GB1589Not only higher requirements are put forward for the total vehicle weight, but also the height limit is uniformly set at 4 meters in terms of vehicle outline size.

At the same time, after the revision of GB1589,The Ministry of Transport also issued the Regulations on the Administration of Restricted Transport Vehicles Driving on Highways, and announced the new standards for the size and weight of highway trucks: the height above the ground should not exceed 4 meters.

Previously, in actual operation, relevant local departments gave high boxes of unwritten "immunity”。

However, at present, some areas have been implemented in accordance with the new national standard, which is particularly unfriendly and even fatal to container Lalutong.

Why do you say that?

Because for China’s cold chain trunk logistics, the refitted second-hand sea cabinets have always been the main force of transportation.

According to insiders, 70-80% of the refrigerated trailers running now are sea cabinets, which is the so-called foreign garbage. And byThe ground height of refrigerated semi-trailer converted from second-hand sea cabinets isBetween 4.15 and 4.25, it obviously exceeds the new standard of 4 meters.

This means that if the whole country starts to implement that the total height of vehicles and goods exceeds 4 meters, Green Pass is not free, which will involve a considerable number of refrigerated semi-trailer owners.

In the previous investigation of Lutong market, we learned that during this period of the opening year, the trend of car use and freight rate of semi-trailer pulling Lutong are rising. Especially in summer, the refrigerated semi-trailer is very popular among green moneymakers because it can chill, has a large loading capacity and is not worried about the problem of pressing the car.

If the total height of vehicles and goods will not exceed 4 meters in the future, the transportation cost of Lutong will rise! On the other hand, it will promote the replacement of new national standard boxes and increase the cost of drivers.

● 　Postscript

At present, from the feedback of card friends from all over the world, many places have begun to implement that the total height of cars and goods is not more than 4 meters. In the future, it will take time to verify whether the standards will be uniformly implemented nationwide. Of course, this also reminds the relevant drivers to prepare in advance, otherwise it will have a great impact on themselves. (Text/Gao Li Min)
