Can a Car Pass the Annual Inspection with a Broken Fog Light?
1 Answers
No, a car cannot pass the annual inspection with a broken fog light. During both the visual inspection and the on-line testing, the lighting system will be checked. If the fog light is broken, the vehicle will fail the inspection. The annual inspection process includes: Checking whether the engine, chassis, body, and auxiliary equipment are clean, complete, and functional; whether the paint surface is uniform and aesthetically pleasing; whether the main assemblies have been replaced and match the initial inspection records; verifying whether the vehicle's braking performance, steering control, lighting, exhaust, and other safety features comply with the "Technical Conditions for Safe Operation of Motor Vehicles" requirements. Examining whether the vehicle has undergone modifications, alterations, or transformations; whether the driving license, license plate, and vehicle registration records match the actual condition of the vehicle and whether any changes have been made; verifying 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 replacement. For large vehicles, checking whether the unit name or the name of the street, township, or village where the vehicle is registered, along with the maximum seating capacity in the driver's cabin, is written in imitation Song font on both sides of the door as required. For trucks, verifying whether the rear gate (including the trailer's rear gate) has the license plate number enlarged 2-3 times on the outside as required; for individually owned or jointly operated vehicles, checking whether the word "Individual" is written on both sides of the door. The characters must be clear, and no unit codes or other patterns are allowed (special cases require approval from the vehicle management office).
