Can Electronic Eyes Detect Vehicles Without Annual Inspection?

Electronic eyes on the road can detect vehicles without annual inspection, but not all electronic eyes have this capability as they serve different functions. Currently, electronic eyes capable of identifying uninspected vehicles are not widely deployed; they are mostly installed at toll station checkpoints on highways or gantry structures at certain intersections. When a vehicle passes through a highway toll station checkpoint or intersections/tunnels equipped with shared cameras, the electronic eye will photograph it. These images are transmitted to a backend system for cross-referencing with traffic police databases through computer analysis. If a vehicle is confirmed to have missed inspection, the system will flag corresponding photos and generate an alert in the backend. Upon receiving this alert, traffic police will intercept the uninspected vehicle at the next intersection along its route. Annual vehicle inspection is legally mandatory - every road vehicle must undergo it. To facilitate car owners, the government has implemented a six-year exemption policy where new vehicles meeting inspection requirements can skip annual checks for six years.

As someone interested in technical devices, I'd like to explain how electronic traffic enforcement cameras work. They capture license plate numbers using high-definition cameras, then the system automatically connects to the vehicle management database to retrieve information including annual inspection status. If the database shows no annual inspection record, the electronic eye can indirectly identify this. In large cities, these systems update quickly and operate efficiently; but in rural or small towns, data delays may occur, causing some violations to be missed. Overall though, electronic eyes are powerful tools for traffic management, assisting traffic police in enforcing regulations. I remind everyone that skipping annual inspections isn't just about fines - it involves safety risks too, as mechanical issues can easily be overlooked. That's why getting timely inspections is the wise choice.

In my experience with traffic law enforcement, I know that electronic eyes are commonly used to catch various violations, such as failing to undergo annual vehicle inspections. After the camera captures the license plate, the backend system compares it with the vehicle registration information to identify records of expired inspections. Traffic police can then issue fines or impound the vehicle, improving management efficiency. In practice, a networked database is crucial. If a vehicle is marked as expired in the system, the electronic eye can accurately identify it. However, it's important to note that the system is not 100% real-time and may miss a few cases. I emphasize that failing to undergo annual inspections can easily lead to accidents and cause a chain of problems, such as affecting insurance claims. Developing the habit of timely annual inspections is the safest and most hassle-free approach.

I once heard a friend mention that he was caught by an electronic eye for not getting his annual inspection on time. He passed through an intersection, and the camera captured his vehicle, then the system comparison found his inspection had expired. He soon received a fine notice. This directly proves that electronic eyes can identify vehicles without valid annual inspections. Now, I always advise car owners around me not to delay their annual inspections to avoid fines and unnecessary trouble. Vehicle compliance is not only a legal requirement but also concerns personal safety. Regular inspections can help eliminate potential hazards.

How are vehicle modifications penalized?

Changing the vehicle body color, modifying the vehicle engine (excluding engine type) or frame without completing the modification procedures within ten days will result in a warning or fine.

How Does the Insurance Company Settle Claims for a Flooded Vehicle?

If the insured vehicle stalls in water, do not attempt to restart it. Instead, immediately call the insurance company to report the situation. Whether and how much the insurance company will compensate depends on the damage assessment. Take photos of the scene for evidence to assist the claims adjuster in evaluating the damage. If the car stalls in water, call for a rescue tow truck immediately and inform the insurance company about the towing expenses, which will be covered by the insurance company.

What should you do when a vehicle accident occurs?

Turn on the hazard warning lights, also known as the emergency flashers. Place a triangular warning sign behind the vehicle, with a distance of 50-100 meters on urban roads and 150-200 meters on highways. Take photos from multiple angles, ensuring that both license plates are clearly visible and the lane markings are included in the shots. These photos can serve as evidence for determining accident liability. Ask the other party to present their driver's license, vehicle registration, annual inspection sticker, and compulsory insurance certificate. If the other party refuses to show these documents, there may be an issue.

What does '10 oil' mean?

Usually when people say how many 'oil' a car consumes, they are referring to how many liters of fuel the car uses per 100 kilometers. '10 oil' means 10 liters. Methods to determine car fuel consumption: Fuel consumption ÷ kilometers traveled × 100 = L/100KM. The numbers before 1.6T and 1.8T represent the engine displacement, which is the sum of the volumes of all cylinders. Larger displacement generally means greater power and higher fuel consumption. Factors affecting car fuel consumption: The amount of fuel a car consumes is not only related to the car itself but also to the driver's habits and road conditions. If driving habits are poor and the car is frequently driven on congested roads, the fuel consumption will inevitably be relatively high.

What Does a Lens Look Like?

It is a circular glass cover, resembling a convex lens like a magnifying glass. The function of a car light lens: The car light lens can reflect the scattered light of the bulb into parallel beams, significantly enhancing the brightness and ensuring sufficient illumination within a range of 150-400M in front of the car. At the same time, in the low beam state, the light does not diverge, but provides good ground illumination without causing glare or affecting the normal driving of oncoming vehicles. Types of car light lenses: Lenses are divided into two types: single-beam lenses and dual-beam lenses. A single-beam lens controls one bulb and is a dedicated product, with separate high and low beams. A dual-beam lens can switch between high and low beams through an internal shutter.
