New drivers who have had their licenses for less than one year will need to have drivers with at least three years of experience with them when traveling on expressways, the Ministry of Public Security said on June 19.

The traffic management bureau under the ministry said that new measures would see traffic police strengthen control measures, mainly in the exits and entrances to freeways.

The revised draft would increase the punishment for intentionally covering license plates, even with paper or leaves, the ministry said.

At present, the ministry is actively collecting opinions on the new regulations from local regions.
