The Highway Bureau understands the hard work of the public and offers "On-Site Registration Service" at all District Motor Vehicle Offices and Stations. The relevant service hours can be found in the “Mini Electric Two-wheelers Reservation Service Section” on the global information website of the District Motor Vehicle Offices. According to statistics, over 86,000 in-use Mini Electric Two-wheelers have been registered, of which over 43,000 were completed through more than 3,400 “On-Site Registration Service,” accounting for half of the total registrations. Therefore, the public is encouraged to make full use of these services.

In order to assist local citizens and foreign migrant workers in registering Mini Electric Two-Wheelers, the Highway Bureau has established related operational procedures and multilingual Q&A notices on the Motor Vehicle Service Network and the Highway Bureau website. In cooperation with local civil affairs units, village offices, neighborhood offices, dealers, industrial zones, science parks, human resources agencies, and other organizations (institutions), the Bureau promotes Mini Electric Two-wheelers registration matters and provides venues for On-Site Registration Service to handle the registration and licensing.

The Highway Bureau reminds that although riding Mini Electric Two-wheelers does not require a driver’s license, riders must be at least 14 years old. Riders should be equipped with safety helmets, not to carry people, drunk driving. In addition, the speed cannot exceed 25 kilometers per hour. Unauthorized additions, increases, decreases, changes in electronic control devices or the original specifications, which could affect the safety of other road users, are prohibited. The Motor Vehicle Offices will cooperate with the District Police every month to intensify inspections and advocacy regarding unregistered and illegally modified vehicles in order to maintain traffic safety.

To encourage the public to use comfortable and convenient public transportation during the consecutive holidays of the Dragon Boat Festival, the Directorate General of Highways will launch several nationwide promotions for Freeway (Highway) passenger transportation from June 21st (the day before the long weekend) to June 25th.

The traffic flow of vehicles returning to work areas is predicted to gradually increase starting from the afternoon of June 24th (Saturday).

The Directorate General of Highways will plan various traffic relief measures based on the traffic characteristics of congested road sections. These measures include alternative routes, flexible adjustment of traffic signal timing, partial intersection closures, restrictions on heavy truck traffic, and the provision of real-time road condition information for Provincial Highways. The Directorate General of Highways will also coordinate with local police units to enhance traffic order maintenance and strengthen enforcement of traffic control measures, such as cracking down on violations in congested areas.

In addition, alternative routes have been planned for the 11 congested sections of the Freeway as estimated by the Freeway Bureau. Guide signs have been placed along these routes to direct road users. It is recommended that road users check the real-time road information on the “Provincial Highway Real Time Information Service” (https://168.thb.gov.tw) and the “Happy Highway App” before departure. During the journey, please pay attention to the Changeable Message Signs (CMS) along the Provincial Highway routes and real-time road condition information provided by the Happy Highway App. Adjust your travel plans accordingly in advance to avoid congestion.
