Can vehicle inspections be conducted on Saturdays and Sundays?
2 Answers
Vehicle inspections cannot be conducted on Saturdays and Sundays. Saturdays and Sundays are national statutory holidays, and inspection institutions are closed for rest. Motor vehicle inspections can only be conducted from Monday to Friday. Additionally, it should be noted that inspection institutions are closed on all statutory holidays. Below is extended information: Precautions: You need to prepare the motor vehicle license, compulsory traffic insurance policy for the motor vehicle, and the vehicle must be equipped with a fire extinguisher, warning triangle, and reflective vest. At the same time, the exterior of the vehicle must be kept intact, the lighting system must function normally, and related functions must operate properly. For motor vehicle inspections, you can make an appointment in advance and arrive at the inspection site on time.
Last weekend I also thought I could get my car inspected, but ended up being turned away. Later, after asking several friends who work at inspection stations, I learned that most official inspection agencies are closed on weekends, except for special duty stations. For example, the inspection stations under our local vehicle management office are only open Monday to Friday, and basically closed on Saturdays and Sundays. However, some private inspection stations might open for half a day, so it's best to call ahead and confirm. It really depends on local regulations. I recommend downloading the Traffic Management 12123 app to check real-time information, so you don’t waste a trip and end up frustrated.
