Can a motorcycle that hasn't been inspected for 10 years still undergo a supplementary inspection?
1 Answers
A motorcycle that hasn't been inspected for 10 years cannot undergo a supplementary inspection because it has already exceeded three consecutive missed annual inspections. The vehicle management authority has the right to forcibly scrap and deregister the vehicle's records. In this context, the scrapping and deregistration process only involves listing the vehicle as scrapped in the system and deleting its information, which is irreversible. The owner must personally go through the scrapping and deregistration process before they can transfer ownership or purchase a new vehicle under their name. Definition of a motorcycle: A motorcycle is a two- or three-wheeled vehicle powered by a gasoline engine and steered by handlebars that control the front wheel. It is lightweight, agile, and fast, widely used for patrols, passenger and cargo transport, and also serves as sports equipment. Broadly speaking, motorcycles are categorized into street bikes, road racing motorcycles, off-road motorcycles, cruisers, and touring bikes. A motorcycle consists of five main components: the engine, transmission system, running gear, braking system, and electrical instrumentation. Precautions for vehicles that have not undergone annual inspection: Accident liability: For any traffic accidents caused by a vehicle that has not undergone its annual inspection on time, the person involved bears full or primary responsibility, and the insurance company will not be liable. This is because the insurance policy specifies that vehicles with expired inspections are among the objects excluded from coverage. Mandatory scrapping: According to the "Regulations on the Compulsory Scrapping Standards for Motor Vehicles," any motor vehicle that fails to obtain an inspection qualification mark for three consecutive inspection cycles after the expiration of its inspection validity period will be compulsorily scrapped.
