Can a car pass the annual inspection if the fog lights are broken?
1 Answers
Even if the fog lights are damaged, the car can still pass the annual inspection normally, as the inspection items do not include fog lights. However, if the fog lights are broken, it is best to replace them promptly to ensure driving safety. The annual inspection process includes: Checking whether the engine, chassis, body, and their accessories are clean, complete, and functional, whether the paint surface is uniform and aesthetically pleasing, whether the main assemblies have been replaced, and whether they match the initial inspection records; verifying whether the vehicle's braking performance, steering control, lights, exhaust, and other safety features comply with the "Technical Conditions for Safe Operation of Motor Vehicles" requirements; Checking whether the vehicle has been modified, remodeled, or altered, whether the driving license, license plate, and vehicle registration records match the actual condition of the vehicle, whether there have been any changes, and whether the necessary approval and modification procedures have been completed; Inspecting whether the license plate, driving license, and the enlarged license plate characters printed on the vehicle are damaged, altered, or illegible, and whether they need to be replaced; For large vehicles, verifying whether the unit name or the name of the street, township, or town where the vehicle is registered, as well as the maximum seating capacity in the driver's cabin, are printed in Chinese imitation Song font on both sides of the door as required; For trucks, checking whether the rear gate (including the rear gate of the trailer) has the license plate number enlarged 2-3 times as required, and whether the word "individual" is printed on both sides of the door for privately owned or jointly operated vehicles. The characters must be clear, and no unit codes or other patterns are allowed (special cases require approval from the vehicle management office).
