Can Vehicle Annual Inspection Be Conducted with Traffic Violations?
2 Answers
Vehicle annual inspection can be conducted after dealing with traffic violations according to regulations. The process of motor vehicle annual inspection: 1. Bring ID card, driver's license, vehicle license, and the original and duplicate pages of compulsory traffic insurance. Prepare all these documents to prevent inability to process due to insufficient documents; 2. Drive to the vehicle management office, then queue at the workshop entrance, receive and fill out the motor vehicle annual inspection application form, fill in various real information as required, and pay the corresponding fees; 3. After completing these steps, wait for the results. Once all tests are passed, the vehicle management office will print the annual inspection pass mark and the duplicate page of the vehicle license.
Last year during my annual inspection, I ran into this exact issue—the DMV straight up refused to process it. The staff said their system showed I had three unpaid speeding tickets that needed to be cleared at the traffic police station first, including fines and point deductions. Everything’s interconnected now—even if you’ve missed just one parking ticket at an intersection, the annual inspection window’s computer will automatically flag it. I specifically called a traffic cop friend for advice, and he suggested checking for violations on the 12123 Traffic Management App a week early. It takes up to 7 days for the system to update after handling them. Don’t wait until inspection day to discover you’re stuck in a queue to pay fines—last time, I saw the guy next to me freaking out at the window, but he still had to reschedule.
