Discrepancy Between Vehicle License and 12123 Inspection?
2 Answers
If there is an inconsistency between the inspection dates on the vehicle license and the Traffic Management 12123 platform, it is recommended to follow the date on the vehicle license. This discrepancy may occur due to recent regulatory changes in inspection intervals, particularly affecting vehicles that are over six but under ten years old. Penalties for driving an un-inspected vehicle include: 1. Vehicles with expired inspections are not permitted on the road and must undergo inspection immediately. Failure to do so may result in the vehicle being impounded if caught by traffic police. 2. There is no grace period for the inspection deadline; the inspection must be completed within three months prior to the expiration date. Once the inspection is passed, the information will be updated and synchronized on both the vehicle license and the Traffic Management 12123 platform.
I recently encountered a situation where the vehicle's registration certificate didn't match the information on the 12123 app when helping a friend check their car's status. This is usually caused by data synchronization delays on the 12123 platform. The registration certificate is a physical document, and after updating inspection records, the app might take a day or two to reflect the changes. Sometimes system updates or network issues can also cause discrepancies. Another common reason is input errors, such as when the vehicle management office enters incorrect dates or vehicle information. My advice is not to panic. First, verify whether the inspection dates on both documents fall within the same period. If the app shows an expired status but the registration certificate is still valid, you can manually refresh the app or wait a day before checking again. If the issue persists, bring your documents to the local traffic management office for verification. This helps avoid unnecessary trouble and ensures your vehicle is safe to drive. Regularly checking inspection information is crucial—don't wait until problems arise to regret it.
