Is it illegal to pick up logo? It is not illegal to remove the logo. If you remove the logo and replace it with another logo, it is illegal. Many car owners feel that their logo is not good-looking after buying a car, so some car owners will remove the logo, which is not illegal. Some car owners will change their cars into more personalized logos, so it is illegal. Cars with strange signs can often be seen in the street. In fact, these signs were changed by the owners themselves, which is definitely illegal. With the increase of illegal private cars, people's requirements and tastes for cars are gradually improving. Many people are no longer satisfied with owning a car, but pay more attention to the brand and model of the car. So if you pay a little attention on the road, it is not difficult to find some "fake" high-end cars, such as Li Xia with the "Bluebird" logo and Alto with the "Four Rings" logo. It can be said that privately changing the logo has become a fashion in the eyes of some car lovers. During the Spring Festival, the reporter called several major auto parts cities in Guangzhou, Shanghai and Tianjin to order Honda's logo. The other party said no problem, you can pick it up at any time. Subsequently, the reporter visited several famous auto parts markets in Beijing, such as Xijiao Auto Parts City in Beijing, and all of them saw the stalls selling car signs. There are dozens of logos on the counter, including Mercedes-Benz logo, BMW logo, Toyota logo and Mitsubishi logo. Just say which brand logo you want, even if this store doesn't have it, the shopkeeper will enthusiastically introduce other shopkeepers to help you find it and install it. A shopkeeper saw that the reporter was interested in logo and quickly stepped forward: "What brand do you want? My brand is complete, original and imitated. " The reporter picked up a Honda brand and asked, "How much is it?" The boss replied: "The original factory is expensive, and 200 yuan is cheap. Every 15 yuan is absolutely the same as true. " The same is true of several other logo shops. If they really sell together, the fake ones are more popular. The reporter made a rough count. In just one and a half hours, more than a dozen cars have changed their logos, and they are all imitations. Although these imitations are much worse than the real ones in workmanship, many logos are specially made for a certain model, so they are very close to the body. For example, a Toyota logo is specially equipped for Sail cars and is extremely popular. According to the reporter's understanding, as early as last year, the Vehicle Management Office of the Municipal Traffic Management Bureau made it clear that it was illegal to change the logo privately in violation of the relevant provisions of the Measures for the Administration of Motor Vehicles. The owner changes the vehicle trademark without authorization, which is inconsistent with the registered vehicle brand. If there is a traffic accident, it is difficult for citizens and traffic police to judge the real brand of the vehicle, which brings inconvenience to the accident handling. The state stipulates that the trademark and brand of motor vehicles are not allowed to be changed. If the owner of a motor vehicle changes, replaces or modifies the vehicle trademark without authorization, he shall be fined in 500 yuan according to the Measures for the Administration of Motor Vehicles. If the inspection does not meet the requirements, the traffic control department may detain the motor vehicle driver's license and order the motor vehicle owner to make rectification within a time limit. Then, why do so many car owners risk being fined to change their car logos? A Geely owner has just installed a bright Mercedes-Benz logo on the front of his car. He told reporters: "Everyone thinks that Geely's logo is similar to Mercedes-Benz, so just keep silent and add some festive colors to the Chinese New Year." Another Mr. Gao, who replaced the battlements of the Great Wall of Saif with bull's heads, also said: "The Great Wall of Saif is very similar to Toyota's off-road vehicles, but the prices are quite different. We can't afford a Toyota car, so we can get addicted by changing Toyota's logo. It must feel good to drive on the road. " When the reporter asked them if it was illegal to change the logo privately, both car owners said that they were not clear about the relevant regulations. Mr. Gao thinks that changing the logo by himself is just like sticking a film on a car, and it is just one of the ways to decorate the car. The owner of Geely also said, "It's not that serious, is it? I just changed the logo of the front of the car, just for fun, and it will not affect the normal driving of the vehicle. " The owner of the logo shop even said: "The personal logo has been changed quite a lot, which is also a kind of car beauty. It doesn't affect others' interests for individuals to change their play. Why not? " On this issue, Liu Yanhua, deputy director of the Trademark Office of Beijing Administration for Industry and Commerce, said that it is obviously inappropriate for the trademark owner to change the trademark privately for some personal reasons. Auto dealers, auto parts stores, auto beauty shops, etc. Changing the logo for the owner without the permission of the trademark holder violates the trademark law and constitutes trademark infringement. Once found, the illegal income will be confiscated and fined according to law. In addition, there are three kinds of serious acts that may constitute a crime, namely: using other people's trademarks without permission, selling them knowing that they are counterfeit goods, illegally manufacturing or buying and selling other people's trademarks. Law enforcement departments will investigate and deal with the trademark infringement facts of operators according to law. At the same time, the reporter also saw the relevant instructions in the "Technical Conditions for Motor Vehicle Operation Safety". "The vehicle shall be equipped with at least one trademark or factory logo that can be permanently maintained in the easily visible part of the front outer surface of the vehicle body, and a logo that can identify the vehicle type shall be installed in the easily visible part of the outer surface of the vehicle body. Vehicles must be equipped with product labels that can be permanently stored. The product label should be fixed in an obvious position that is not affected by the replacement parts, and its specific position should be indicated in the product instruction manual. " It can be seen that it is also a violation of this provision to change the bid privately. In fact, it is the normal psychology of consumers to pursue satisfaction beyond the products brought by well-known brands. Automobile trademark has become the crowning touch of the brand, and it also shows the continuous improvement of consumers' brand awareness. However, the act of changing the logo without permission, especially the imitation of the logo, has seriously affected the interests of the exclusive right holder of the registered trademark and the production enterprise. In this regard, the majority of car owners should face up to this problem and should not cause future troubles because of temporary vanity. Relevant law enforcement departments should also start from the source, rectify the chaotic automobile trademark market, standardize this behavior as soon as possible, and put an end to the unhealthy trend of changing the car logo without permission. @20 19
