Are Non-Annual-Inspected Vehicles Captured Every Time?

Non-annual-inspected vehicles on the road will be captured multiple times by electronic surveillance. Driving a non-annual-inspected vehicle is illegal. Here is extended information: Vehicle Annual Inspection: Vehicle annual inspection refers to a mandatory test for every vehicle that has obtained official license plates and a vehicle registration certificate, equivalent to an annual physical examination for the vehicle according to the 'Technical Conditions for Motor Vehicle Operation Safety'. Purpose: Vehicle annual inspections can promptly eliminate potential safety hazards, encourage enhanced vehicle maintenance, and reduce the occurrence of traffic accidents. Required documents for vehicle annual inspection: Original vehicle registration certificate. Copy of compulsory traffic insurance. Copy of ID card.
I've been driving for over a decade and have seen many friends take chances by skipping annual inspections. Traffic cameras mainly target speeding and red-light running. License plate recognition systems automatically cross-check databases, but not every pass triggers an alert. Some older cameras have limited functionality, especially in remote areas or at night, where recognition rates drop. However, equipment at major urban intersections gets upgraded frequently with high network update rates, making the risk of being caught much higher. While the system isn't 100% accurate, just one capture is enough for traffic police to track violations based on records - having your vehicle impounded or paying fines would be the least of your worries. Getting timely inspections is both convenient and safe - don't cut corners just to save a little time and end up regretting it.
